why should it be the same as the arlington dirt? was there some magical correctness about how it played? honestly I'm not sure that in the end there was a huge difference in how it played. I'll check when I get home.

Arl plays different than Kee and Dmr because its a longer meet. if you haven't noticed by now when horses that haven't been training or running on poly run on it for the first time they get noticeably tired, especially cheaper horses. but as the meet goes on they adapt and the normal tendencies begin to take shape again, for example the dominance of horses that have good early speed.
