Am I right in thinking you prefer the aw to the turf? Is it just a question of the ground being easier to judge for you? Or do you hold racing purist views? Also have you any fancies for tomorrow in Newmarket?
I think the turf ''was'' brilliant but with watering over the years the amount of punters winning must be miniscule,so many fixtures diluted racing, books just seem to follow suit they are pathetic and now it's creeping over to the aw although they are still pretty clueless pricing up...,I,don't necessarliy like the aw more,it's just so much less work to do and no worrys and frustrations of the surface,newcastle has made it worse we need dirt tracks but unfortunately are turning to tapeta,the day swell packs up is the day i pack up and they are talking of resurfacing to tapeta/.I used to turnover fortunes on aw placeplots i don't even think of doing them anymore,a quick glance at the cards and you see the racings so uncompetitve most cards just not worth doing..anyone thinling they are going to find some great angle or edge nowadays have no chance non exist anymore track draws have been ruined as well...Used to be so many things you could do at tracks,you could bet draws almost blind but they've eliminated them so whereby a lot of tracks all races run up the middle of and horses don;'t even go to rails as 90% of meetings have destroyed any changeable draws you can pick up on, it is truely pathetic...
