Haydock going 20.12.14

[TheBluesBrother]

Going, heavy my ass.

Tom lee said that Haydock had received 40mm of rain (1.6") <!– s:shock: –><!– s:shock: –>

The going stick was chs 5.0 & hdl 5.5, the official going was given as <b>heavy</b>.

So how come when I worked out the going allowance I end up with <b>-0.40s/f</b> (good to soft) <!– s:shock: –><!– s:shock: –>

Does anybody care…

Mike.

Nobody is surprised as Kirkland Tellwrong is in charge

The going seemed better on the hurdles course than the chase course but the chasers finished tired so I wouldn’t disagree with the ground being heavy.

Wrong distances perhaps?

I took another look at going allowance on the chase course and made it

-0.12s/f

slower than the hurdles course.

Haydock going allowances:
Hurdles

-0.40s/f

(good to soft)
Chase

-0.52s/f

(good to soft with soft patches)

Turf going allowance table:

Firm +0.55s/f to +0.63s/f
Good/firm +0.20s/f to +0.53s/f
Good -0.25s/f to +0.18s/f
Good/soft -0.55s/f to -0.28s/f
Soft -1.00s/f to -0.58s/f
Heavy -1.58s/f to -1.03s/f
