WHATS THE DELAY AT AYR?

Sanding the bend into the Straight

one of them took a bad step on the bend in that last race, we picked it up at the time most probably missed it.

YEAH SAW THAT THANKS

Ploughing the course

Its the "Daily Delay" (brought to by Incompetent British Racing PLC). A regular event seen frequently by racegoers and punters.

ayr still the only racecourse to be waterlogged when it hasn't rained there for 3 months

Ayr the unluckiest track ever

Who remembers someone lit a bonfire in there garden.....and Ayr was delayed or abandoned

A Council House Tenant burning his doors to keep warm?

Dave the tramper was his name

Is it softer than good up there today?

After a series of "blips"?

Good ground times,saddo.

OK, ta. I've backed Woven in the 4.30, likes cut.

my guesse is it's prolly to keep decent #gappe twixt theye -RTV- Ayr & #LadiesDay @Roscommon coverage eitherre datte 'r a #divvitte somewheres on course

Why is it delaying a race on the straight course?

Please excuse my ignorance of Ayr's layout.

They are behind and trying to catch up (not very well)

Thanks Irons, but I've only just logged on and assumed that if the bend was a problem then the straight course was still raceable.

It is but they delayed sanding the bend,loper.

Some of these grounds people need a lesson tbh…..never used to have this nonsense…..

Lanark hairpin all weather no issues…..tightest in the country…..

Over watering is a massive contributory factor.
They seem terrified to have fast ground in the Summer

The trite observation is that "the CoC job is a thankless task". It isn't. They are tasked with producing G/F ground in summer yet nearly everyone of them err on the side of dousing to ensure Good, at least. You are correct UTI, they are terrified. Yet when they know the world is looking, and sending their top class horses to Royal Ascot, they are happy to produce G/F verging on Firm ground with no problems to anybody at all. If they do that at an "ordinary" meeting........30 NR's blaming the ground, "can't risk my horse on that" etc
