Handicapper's Update for the Breeder's Cup

Postby madelyn » Thu Nov 03, 2011 11:30 am

For all of you handicappers out there, be advised we got a massive downpour today here in Louisville. This will definitely affect track conditions for the Breeder's Cup this weekend. The turf will have give and the dirt will be slippery and likely be packed.

If not downright soft, the turf will have give... supposed to be sunny tomorrow. But it isn't warm enough to really dry out quickly.. it Really Rained. For a long time.

most american turf horses, want no part of soft ground. just aren't bred for it at all. though if it's still yielding on saturday will take a look at derby kitten
