Steve Shovlar 10,424 Posted March 29, 2018 Forecast is changing all the time. No rain forecast tomorrow in Poole until afternoon, but too late now. Somerset might get away with it but the chance of rain in the evening, meaning if it isn’t called early there’s a chance of racing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Raining cats and dogs here at the moment and the forecast is rain all day moving north. I cannot see that Somerset will be on and I’m amazed that they still have it as being on.. I presume Matt had to get the riders in from abroad but maybe not and he took a risk with the weather forecast Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There P&P was cancelled today, and i would expect the track to be sodden, with more rain expected it will not drain and dry out in time no matter what there curator trys to do. They would need a sunny afternoon with a drying wind to have half a chance, and i dont think they will get that. I hope im proved wrong.

Steve Shovlar 10,424 Posted March 30, 2018 Rain has me urghe east than predicted last night. Just goes to showhow inacurrate weather forecasting can be. Can’t see the point in not postponing this evening. A arly call when tee;s no chance makes sense. All very disappointing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
