Today's Horse Racing
In the summertime [when the weather is hot, you can stretch...] we often have five turf meetings and an all-weather card to ensure racing takes place. First of December when you really need the all-weather, just two NH cards!
Racing post results usually give some concise notes on how each horse ran. They must have a trainee on today because he has written War & Peace to describe the ride of Lapilli in todays race at Dundalk at 5:00. WTF! 
"Held up towards rear, progress under 2f out, not clear run and switched right inside final furlong, ridden and ran on into never threatening 4th, nearest finish (jockey said, regarding running and riding, his instructions were to drop gelding in from a bad draw and to ride him cold, he took him back from the stalls and took a chance down the inner. he further added that gelding got no gap until he switched right and then he ran on well. trainer said that gelding is a bad bleeder and he confirmed that these were the instructions given to jockey and that he was satisfied with the ride that gelding received. vet said gelding coughed several times and had slight cut to hind leg) (op 25/1)"
