What confuses me about the Tote Board Shadow is after 10 am, their is NO POSSIBILITY that the Tote Board can cast a SHADOW onto the Racecourse.
Please let me know why meetings can not be delayed/moved to other days. We finally get a good draw ,then the meeting is abandoned and we have to wait several weeks for a Race where I am sure we will draw wide . The jockeys may not like it but I would rather see my horse RUN ,with a lesser jockey, than wait another 3 weeks and hope to get a good jockey.
Is their any fund available to us Owners ,to recover some money ,or do we have to keep settling our Bills in the hope something will finally be done?

My tote board comment was actually tongue in cheek, I was winding pirates up

Give everything but up!

Investigation still underway. Soft area was very localised and not on the inside as you would expect with the cambre and rain that would have been draining down towards the inside. I will let you know when a finding comes out.

Starting to sound like removing the false rail and putting cones out to keep horses from going too wide,might well have sufficed
(with lateral thinking it can be moved inward!)
