    Old course Thursday.
    New course Friday.

    Thats why all the hurdle races are Friday, no way their going to run the biggest profile race of the past 40 years on bad ground.

    It will be decent ground all round id say though, those high winds along with the excellent drainage at Cheltenham will dry the ground out big time before tomorrow.
