He thrives on firm ground and, for all I don't know anything about the opposition, is well worth looking out for, this race being used as a prep for a bigger race there later in the month, the name of which escapes me. There must be a chance he'll outclass them today, though.

It was listed as Firm on Wednesday.. and I don't think it's rained there since.. so it's probably still Firm as of now. (however, that could change by posttime!)
