What is your professional opinion on sloppy tracks? Do you base it upon the individual animal?

It is just too politically correct to talk of delaying the races because of rain. A few years ago they moved a grass stake at Tampa from Sat to Tuesday because of rain. Except it never rained, was sunny and 70.
How do you know if the weather wont get worse in another day? What if you delay it a week and the weather is worse then?
If there were a rash of breakdowns that occurred I could see where people may question the track. But of all the horses that you thought may not finish a race on Sat would you not have made GW 3/5 to be the one?
