I've been preaching this to several forums about the need
for improvements to the Puett Gates.
And apparently this forum in general seems to understand
the need for change. What those changes are
should be debated but currently are not yet under discussion
in the board rooms of the racetracks and shedrows of the racetracks.

I would not readily dismiss Mr. Dickinson's idea
for the Moving Starting Gate, as Stan Bergstein
authored a insightful and unique piece in his column last year
titled "Try Ditching the Starting Gate".

Suffice it to say Mr. Bergstein was right on the mark
on so many points and as a veteran horse racing fan
and a student of the game for more than 20 years
I endorse his views pertaining to thoroughbred racing.
