Will not be soft,told you days ago they were watering to produce good ground,walked course yesterday and was just easy side of good.Will be perfect tomorrow,no excuses for anyone.[;)]

By:
Still disgraceful, should not be allowed to water within 48 hours of a meeting. After final decs that should be it, let alone during a meeting

betfair radio.said it will get in after the top been knocked off today.and that they are doing it on the fly late tonight.

Im not a fan of the watering can zilzal but would much rather have near perfect ground for the Arc than any firm in the description.Fresh strip tomorrow is in beautiful nick,any UK CoC would be very happy to equal it.

Up until 48 hours im neutral, but during racing no way. They seem to manage in the Us, HK, Oz and Japan with firm in the going all right.
Gosden wont be happy if he walks a squelchy course after pulling Nathaniel and putting in MM |

By:
Tambhoy,dont listen to those muppets,I told the forum on Monday the plan was to water and yesterday that that they would sprinkle it Fri and Sat.
Clowns saying it is on the sly,as bad as Racing Post and their slack reporting imo. Whatever anyone has backed cant have the ground as an excuse for losing,if a horse cannot win on that track it will be another factor.gl all whatever your bet. |
