I have seen that Formgrids get their surfaces mixed up at times - last sand run ran 1.75 lenghts behind Kwaaiwater off a 53 - surely not good enough to make him a 62 (which was his turf rating before he won on Saturday) closest thing to a banker today imo - if he repoduces his turf runs on the sand

As can be seen from The Happy Horseplayer's ratings, not a lot stand out from race 3 onwards - so it looks a bit of a nightmare - especially if Where's My Chop comes unstuck.

Play well if you do play

i don't often do this, but i am sitting out today. Good luck all. I have however made my compo selection <

wheres my chop has improved plenty since gelding so his mr 53 on sand is way to low...should be a cert as 1400 way better than the 1000m for him
