Rain forecast and he's still watering

And what about the well-being of the horses? Venetia Williams, for example, will only run hers on soft because she reckons good to firm and better is damaging long term.

Claisse had to water. He won't water overnight tonight to avoid false ground and slipping on bends and on the landing side of fences, etc, If he started with ground close to good this afternoon, he'd risk ground good to firm before the end of racing tomorrow, and essentially nothing would turn up.

I reserve my right to disagree with you all.

And Venetia.
