VRC Track Manager, Liam O'Keeffe talks through the preparation for Saturday's racing at Flemington Racecourse.

Track: GOOD 4.  Potentially get to Good 3 throughout the afternoon on Saturday.  
Conditions: Put on 25mm irrigation this week to keep it at a Good 4.  Will put a little more on overnight Friday as the winds Friday may dry it out a little. 
Rail: True position. 

Weather:  Sunny 25deg
Wind: North/North Westerly - approx 20-22km/h

Could see some quick times up the straight with the northerly behind the horses.  Longer races might see them take cover on the final bend.
