    I can park the apology for the time being but the CoC did a better job than I was fearing. We'll call it a score draw.

    The meeting started on genuinely fast ground with a proper minus going...

    Not sure my immediate reaction is to agree, reet. Low numbers were donald-ducked earlier in the week and nothing came up the rail towards the end.

    I'll have more calcs done in due course but the...

    I'll get back to you later in the week on that one, Colin. I'd said to Reet before the meeting I'd happily come back and apologise if I had a minus going allowance for all five days. Going by the...

    I'll be pleasantly surprised if the clown of the course gets the watering right. I expect he'll over-water the middle and far side to attempt to address a possible disadvantage to the nearside. We'll...

    I've just checked a couple of sites.

    The forecast seems to be saying light rain today then dry until after racing on Saturday. That should be good news.

    We'll see what the CoC does but I expect...

    I'm just getting started on Ascot. One of the first things I've noticed is that the Wolferton is not a handicap this year.
