RACE COMMENTARY
Π Going: Going: Soft, Heavy in places.With the recent snowy weather, followed by alot of rain, I have no idea who to back at Cheltenham on the heavy going, and don't seem to do so well there anyway.
♠ So, this year at the Festival, I am following and backing the selections put up by Geedee - Day 3 @ Cheltenham.
