I commend the CHRB to take the right step and mandate sythetic surfaces for all Cali tracks.
The excercize in getting the bums rush that Barbaro had to endure I think exemplifies the Magna method. The people are obviously trained to hustle any horse that breaks through the gate back into the gate. Safety for the horse in that case is not a priority.
i think the Barbaro gate incident speaks volumes about the management and priorities at the Magna tracks.
