that sounds absolutely correct to me. From looking around, I'd have said 20k for the races and about 45k for the fireworks. I was counted in both of them... and came out ahead, which is never a bad thing.

Canterbury had almost 11,000 there for the 4th. That's big by their standards. They usually get that attendance figure for Debry Day (their opening day as well), the 4th, and Claiming Crown Day. They do their fireworks display on the 3rd instead of the 4th, but I'm unsure of the attendance for that.

CBY will miss not having the Claiming Crown this year.

whoa! 14k on TUE!? They've rarely put up those figures. Good thing I didn't even try to get near that insanity. The track is barely big enough to hold those numbers
