The club attracted a crowd of 2400 for its annual cup meeting on Saturday.
Club manager Rohan Whitehead labelled the meeting a huge success with both turnover and field sizes well up compared to previous years.
"We were thrilled with the support and were hoping to get a crowd of 2500 but just fell short," Whitehead said.
"The support from trainers and owners was also appreciated.
"Most races had full-fields of 10 runners which hasn't happened for a long time.
"Larger fields leads to increased turnover which would have been well up but we haven't got the exact figures yet."
