i read about this earlier today....one take that some had was that more trainers are running their horses more often due to lack of horses, and smaller fields. of course some of the trainers deny that--and some of the track people deny there's a problem with the surface. i'd imagine that much like most things, the truth lies somewhere in between. some trainers want to boycott, others say it's not the surface.
and of course, too often people say SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE. problem is, they don't think things through and really get to the root of the problem, they just DO SOMETHING.
