    Me on Monday - "Jesus, its going to be a swamp"
    RP today - "Officials prepared to water the course if enough rain does not fall..."

    I'd be terrible picking out a double including Willies fav in the Supreme and the Going

          I read earlier about 6mm today and another 3mm on Sunday, which is about exactly what they need to
          maintain current good to soft, but the warm conditions next week might force them to water the New Course if the rain next Wednesday doesn’t materialise…

            Really good news this rain today. Keeps it nice and g/s, just enough to do so, but yes, I'd say looking at the forecast it looks very likely they'll have to water once the racing has started. This year we've been blessed with no real ground worries. Makes up with all the uncertainties with the Mullins runners.

                  You can still get 2/5 on good to soft with a few firms. May as well pick the ripe fruit.

                    The rain yesterday was perfect. None of us want watered ground. They'll not have to get the hose pipe out now. Phew.

                          That would be my understanding. Guess it's got two more days to dry than the old before it's run on so makes sense to water now

                              Wouldn't have thought so

                              I was wrong. Clerk just confirmed on TV that they watered New Course yesterday.
