It's going to be very interesting how TGJB breaks out the day.
I'm not jumping into the Frosted / AP pace scenario, middle half and last quarter this time of night after a long day.
Silver Charm made mention in an earlier string about the text I sent out to quite a few about the amount of water being put down on the track. In 43 years of wrestling with the Spa I've never seen anything like today. I was in the backyard for the first 4 races before going up to my seats, so I don't know what when on before then. After races 4-8 the track was watered very heavy with 2 trucks covering all the running ground. Nothing after race 9, before the Travers ONLY one truck came out and soaked the inside paths, no 2nd truck covering the outer ground. It was barely 80 today and no humidity and more water went on to that track than any day it was 90 with high humidity.
The Ellis Shipper and Private Zone benefitted from it and I have to assume that AP was meant to?
