GOLD COAST, DECEMBER 26: DAVID FOWLER SELECTS ...

By David Fowler | Friday, December 25, 2015

As I write this on Christmas Day, the meeting is difficult to analyse.

Four millimetres of rain fell overnight at the Gold Coast (Thursday night) and there was shower activity this morning.

How much more will fall? What will the rating be? The rail is true but generally when rain falls jockeys search out wider.

Below are my ratings only, pending scratchings.

But I stress, the picture will be a lot clearer on Saturday morning, so please check final fields and track condition details.

Race 1: 8, 3, 6. Rough chances 2, 5, 9, 10 and 13.

Race 2: 10, 15, 3. Rough chances 4, 6, 11, 14 and 16.

Race 3: 1, 11, 3. Rough chances 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 12 and 14.
