He will be fine. Friends girlfriend works there & txt me half hour ago. I cashed out on WHAD Triumph bet at 33s but they said leave all Altior bets. It’s only minor and they compared it to sore...

More rain than was originally forecast is now expected at Cheltenham, where the festival was already set to open on Tuesday at its softest for at least 20 years, with parts of the course having...

He just said Olly Murphy had said that there was serious rain over and they got a few more mls today so he’d like to walk the course himself. I’d say it would have to be very heavy for him to go...

Elliott to walk the course tomorrow morning before any decision is made on Samcro according to Betfair preview.

Was wondering. Samcro went to 22 on Betfair for Supreme just there so that must be after that statement.

First sign of drift on Betfair Exchange & Matchbook for Ballymore any way. Out to 10/9 & 6/5. Going the opposite for Supreme.

Imagine the conversation between the O’Leary’s & Elliott re Samcro later today.

14mm or half an inch of rain yesterday and overnight with some rain due today but more persistent from tomorrow afternoon. Long range forecast last week had it fairly right.


No way this starts...

Thanks RH. That’s a fair explanation and goes a long way to explaining the inconsistencies of the going stick readings at Cheltenham.

It does. This year tho to be fair tho circumstances look different. The amount of snow on the course has to mean a high water table and with the rain forecast, if we get the high end of it Claisse...

A lot of my horses all handle soft ground perfectly well so it’s hardly unreasonable to question the true state of the ground when there’s evidence there to suggest it may be softer than the official...

Watering the Tuesday so Grass!!!

I don’t see how? You put a stick into the ground to determine how much moisture is there. How is the time of year relevant to how far the stick goes in? If it goes to 5.5 in January and is heavy...

Shur there’s no rain due Granger!!! [emoji14] He’ll be grand!!!

I agree with you archie to an extent but a lot of horses declared Sunday for Tuesday will be done so on the basis of ground. If the going reading is currently 5.5 it’s a lot softer than they’re...

A going stick reading of 5.5 on January 1st 2018 = Heavy - soft in places (see pic below)


A going stick reading of 5.5 on Tuesday 6th March 2018 is equal to Soft - Good/soft in places as seen in...

The going stick reading for the Tuesday was identical to a January one. Only difference was the wording. The January...

Claisse is probably going to declare good/soft somewhere in his description anyway. Last year it rode a lot slower than G/S on day one because I remember going in again on Buveur D’Air after they...

The only difference between this and last year was last winter was very dry and of course the 200 tonnes of snow on the course causing it to go soft a week out. The water table is currently very...

9.6mm of rain recorded at Cleeve Hill weather station in the past 24 hours, 2.5 miles from the course.:whistle:

Kim must have had one too many sherries with his supper and was dreaming of Charbel getting his desired good ground. 🤣

Every forecast going gives very heavy rain for the weekend and loads of...
