Glorious here at the moment. 10 degrees but feels a lot warmer as there is very little breeze.


....looks like a fair bit of rain coming in from Wednesday.

40-1 Heavy - in a three runner race.
with water tables high and forecast uncertain from wednesday onwards.
Is a good bet.

Max 20mm of rain over next 7 days on good to soft ground with double digit temperatures and strong winds for much of the week, more likely good ground than deep ground in my opinion....

Yes, maybe there is a god ! We need it to be Soft as all the form all season has been on that. Good Ground would mess with the majority of the Bankers. Its going to be a punters year. I can feel it.
 
The first post of interest in 4 pages.

Ranging from charlie talking about weather, to himself to Lobos declaring all the favs can't win unless it's soft.

You are all nerds :love_heart:

Talking about the weather, on a thread about the weather, what am I playing at haha :highly_amused:

I’ll try and make my updates more interesting Kev, but you know what they say don’t you. ‘If you want the rainbow, you’ve got to put up with the rain’

Do you know which “philosopher” said that?

Dolly Parton

And people say she’s just a big pair of tits :triumphant:
 
Lovely day here. 13 degrees, wall to wall sun, nice breeze too. There was a horse schooling on the XC, although not sure what it was.

Interesting they watered today. They obviously aren't too worried about what's coming weather wise
 
I think there is high confidence now that race week will be dry

Maybe it's why Claisse is watering, there is going to be rain about for the next couple of days more so on Wednesday and less so on Thursday

I dont think it's gonna be a week for the mudlarks
