Licence Display:
To assist security in ensuring that only authorised people are allowed into the raceday stalls area it is essential that all licence-holders and licenced staff wear their licence badges so that they are clearly visible at all times. Security do not necessarily know trainers and other licence holders by sight and wearing licence badges so that they are easily seen will prevent any unnecessary embarrassment in accessing the stalls area.
