So should we make the long trek - would hate to drive all the way just to see that racing is off?

Extremely difficult today imo - work riders + soft going = big payouts. One of those days where a straight line P6 has as much chance of arriving as a 10 grand perm.

In Star Rating's race, I make Skinny Jeans the danger - loves the soft

Will the riders lodge a protest against the going? Or will they keep going until they're skidding around like a car with bald tyres on a rainy day?

I reckon these guys are grateful for their day and will keep going......................

My point exactly, Phil. It might have to be the trainers who lodge a protest!

I think so, yes.

frodo can makhubo ride 55.5?

I have done an ew Lucky 63(must be mad)
I have factored in the Jockeys and the draw.
1.Quick On The Draw 5/2
2.Flight Specialist 12/1
4.Mother Superior 16/1
6.Star Rating 10/1
7.Dream Street 6/1
8.Jet Dot Com 4/1.

Payout £250,000...would be happy with my money back.
There will be some outsiders going in today

Have no idea - no mention regarding the riding weight from the stable - I see in the Computaform his weight is listed as 56 - not sure if that's correct - but if so I think I can live with 0.5 overweight - MR has droppped 2 points anyway from his last run which he needed - might be over confidence from my side but I will be banking him in the PA - if I can figure out what to include in the other 6 legs

Also if the weights in the Computaform is correct - some of the guys will need to chop off their legs - C Ndlovu's weight is listed at 58 (carded to ride at 53.5) , Mabaya's is listed as 60 (carded to ride at 53 :S) - can only assume our 'official form guide' has messed up

Frodo, LouisG, and others. All the best with your runners(tu)
