They missed days, had horses break down steady in the morning, cancelled training, lied about the track on numours occasions. Whats so good about TWP in the winter? The only shame is they can always fall back on the roads being too bad for the people coming from L'ville to travel.

The days Turfway missed, the roads were indeed closed. They didn't lie about that. I know, I live here. I went up to take photos of Sumwon the second day the interstate was open (side roads still ice covered), and the stable area was still an inch of sheet ice, they threw straw down on the main horse paths so they could get to the open track for training.
The steady breakdowns in the morning - I hadn't read or heard anything about that, you can share if you have specifics.

Del Mar and the rest of the poly will fail in the heat, just give it time.

Time will tell. Australia hasn't yet had a problem, but those are not exactly the same artificial surfaces.
