A going stick would be a help, but that would be expecting a lot.

Obviously it takes a lot to make an announcement about a change in the going.

Yielding is ground between good to soft and soft and is a proper description of ground.You seem to be confusing a wrong description or a guess with what you perceive as a catch all.

Come to England guys,we have had Good to Firm Soft in the dip ( Carlisle) and Good to Firm Soft in the straight ( Leicester) over the last couple of years. I can only guess its due to global warming, as to what horse will go on such going only the Almighty knows.
