| Abstract/Contents: | Profiles kikuyu grass, stating that its "wet-weather preformance is best when allowed to grow as nature meant it to grow, as a dominating plant in deep well-drained soil." Focuses on drainage, highlighting the kikuyu track at Adelaide's Victoria Park Racecourse in Australia. Notes that "verti-drain treatments are a regular part of management and there is a drain running under the inside rail. Well-planned track construction, however, has made Victoria Park a very good bet for winter racing." |
