They closed the seating portion of the grandstand a few years back, so now only the first floor is open [as well as the clubhouse, which does have a second-floor dining room].

Also, they took down the lighting a couple of years ago, so now all the racing is in the afternoon.

All that said, I still go there. It's perfectly fine for watching and wagering on simulcast action. And, what the heck, if you'rle they're while they're racing, it's still fun to watch and bet on live racing.

It's also only about ten minutes from the beach -- and that's a bonus.
Thanks.I'll be going there just for simulcasting.DO they at least have a half way decent area for that with at least a table to sit at?
