Mate it started raining where i was last night at about 645 and that was 5min from the track and it hasnt stopped since. it hasnt been pelting but there have been solid then light rain all night/day and there are no breaks in the radar for it to stop anytime soon. It is only wednesday and if it clears tomorrow and they have tomorrow arvo, friday and saturday morning in the sun then it could get to dead i guess but at the moment you would have to say worse than that.

Okay. thanks HW. Where's your list of webbed-footed horses located again, pharfromoz? :)

I live about 5 mins walk from the Eagle Farm and at this moment at 10.22pm Wed there is good steady rain.

Find the webbed feet wadders (Gee I Jane,Black Ink , Snipers Bullet and Shinzig as a roughie)

Wise one

in my opinion gold edition can race anywhere from leading to just behind midfield but i believe with the likely track conditions and the possible lack of up front runners she will either lead or take a sit. the only problem will be her ability to handle a possible wet track. although she has won on wet tracks she hasn't had that many runs on it to justify her as a genuine wet tracker. the barrier is beautiful will come into 5 with the emergencies out although with the weather may be one or two scratchings. the jackal and stormhill will probably race forward..... im unaware of stormhill's ability on rain affected tracks.....any opinions on other leaders???

hi Raw ,,i think the top weight has to be 57kgs,,so if excellent is scratched then the weights have to be risen,,,,,havent heard anything though so i might be wrong...
still raining steady...
go geeijane :)
