Good To Soft 1.63 = Free Money

It'll be good by Tuesday, good to soft in places.

A cloudy day tomorrow isn't going to turn it all in to good ground over night. Going stick still at 6 ish also

So in the space of 18 hours with 4 hours bright sunshine its reading exactly the same as yesterday on going stick @ 5.9
In 3 days its dried out 0.1 .
5.9 is still the soft side of good to soft.
He started the meeting on 6.0 last year which he called soft /gd sft in places.Needs to dry to above 7.0 before good is called up front.
anything around 4/6 good to soft is a steal.

should be 1.1 not 1.65

If you all think it's free money then you'd better hoover it up!

I get the feeling that some of those 'free money' going description merchants are sweating a bit having unloaded into good to soft! It's definitely the likeliest description but good, good to soft in places is perfectly possible! Not my idea of fun, backing an odds-on shot that isn't even running in one of the races at what is the best sports event on the planet!

GoingStick     Old Course: 6.4, New Course: 6.6, Cross Country: 6.1

Careful chaps, it's drying fast judging by the above figures

Still a bit of 1.09 - (free money)

The Cheltenham Festival action is set to begin on predominantly good to soft going, according to clerk of the course Simon Claisse.

With the track having gone more than a week without receiving any rainfall, the going is continuing to dry out, but Claisse says he is pleased with the condition of the turf.

"Although it's now been dry for eight or nine days, we'd just had so much rain before then it's held on to the moisture," he told Racing UK.

"It's lovely ground, I've described it as good to soft, good in places on both hurdle and chase courses and I'd anticipate that we're going to be starting that way.

"I had thought that if the temperatures we'd had yesterday afternoon, up to 18C, had persisted, we might be starting on good, but I'd say it will be mainly good to soft.

"With the sun coming out this afternoon, the ground down the hill on the Old Course is now good.

"The Cross-Country Course, which we are going to use on Wednesday this year, is a little bit easier (Good to Soft, Soft in places). There is some soft ground around the top turn where they start."

Claisse said he was still keeping his options open over the prospect of watering the New Course for racing on Thursday and Friday.

"I know it might sound perverse to some, but this place can dry out very quickly. We'll take it day by day. There's just a possibility that it might dry out if the breeze gets up and the weather remains dry."

it isn't case, its heading towards good but its between good and good to soft

yes good to soft will be paid
