I am not a big poly proponent. I hated it last year but im starting to get use to it now. I do enjoy the fact that the fields are more full thus you get better value on the horses that you bet.
I played the card last night and it was abundantly clear that you pretty much had to throw out speed.

Yes, I was on the track on Wednesday night. I also was on the track when they first installed Poly and the time between then and now. Although the track has been leveled, it is clear that the surface on Wednesday does not "break-up" as well as it did when it was first installed. The track is also slippery. What I mean by that is that it is hard for a horse to get a good grip on the surface. Big clumps of Poly, as well as dust, are now being kicked up by horses. I also dont think it has been playing as fair as it once did.
