G'day osulldj and others,

In respect of the likelihood of a rain-affected track tomorrow, just be wary of the advertised state of going. As it is a major meeting with massive investments anticipated, sometimes the officials are somewhat reluctant to downgrade the state of the track for fear og adversely affecting turnover and this can be a trap for the unwary punter. Therefore, it is wise to monitor the times in races preceding the Doncaster and make up your own mind as to the true condition of the track. Also, I agree totally with our fellow forum contributor, that we must note if horses are going wide searching for firmer ground. As you are experienced punters you know the value of watching for these important factors-it can make all the difference between a horse which can handle dead going as opposed to it's ability to handle slow or heavy going. It can be a real "wealth-hazard."

Cheers.
