Racing: Bit of common sense prevailing with the new Australian track ratings being used from today. The old Fast, Dead and Slow ratings are gone and replaced with what we consider to be more meaningful ratings, to assist us punters. New ratings include: - Firm (1) = Dry hard track - Firm (2) = Firm track with reasonable grass coverage - Good (3) = Track with good grass coverage and cushion - Good (4) = Track with some give in it - Soft (5) = Track with a reasonable amount of give in it - Soft (6) = Moist but not a badly affected track - Soft (7) = More rain-affected track that will chop out - Heavy (8) = Rain affected track that horses will get into - Heavy (9) = Wet track getting into a squelchy area - Heavy (10) = Heaviest category, very wet, towards saturation Your thoughts on the new ratings? Like if you like them, Comment if you dont. #happypunting #racing #punting
