It's only when I washout shortly before a race that I get concerned.

I'm washed out after all the beer I drank this weekend. Back on topic, hopefully TV coverage will spend more time focusing on the paddock so viewers can get a better look at the horsies.

That too may be a wash out my friend, depending on how the early wagers go. Will the festivities be at your place or Toms on Saturday?
