    What's now 8's? Heavy?

      I had to look Lobos, 8s is heavy on PP, so basically backing heavy and soft, and taking good to soft out of equation. Looks that’s taking a big chance to me

                Ok, I'm a weather anorak but only for the Festival. Looking like tomorrow's rain could be crucial. If it's a deluge then it affects things greatly but if it's just steady rain for a few hours that's just what ground needs anyhow. The course hasn't had that much rain this last 2 weeks.

                These following dry days must be music to the Clerk's ears, allowing him hopefully no need to water. At the moment my bet would be good to soft on the Tuesday but I'd be swayed once we see what tomorrow night brings.

                            Frozen start to the day with sunshine til about midday, then the wind picked up a fair bit from then till the end of the day, I’d say that was a very good drying day for the track

                                Looks like yesterday's rain wasn't that extensive, unless any of you locals know otherwise. Hope for Galvin and Banbridge backers now looking at this forecast.

                                Hopefully one of the journos could put a mic to the Clerk today for a view, a week out. Haven't heard from him since early last week.
