Title:We have a racecourse that becomes excessively wet and soft during winter months as it is situated on rather heavy soil with poor natural drainage. After every race meeting it is very badly cut up. Our committee believe that the only remedy is to lime and apply a little superphosphate from time to time. Occasionally they add some blood and bone manure. Would you comment on this an offer advice?
