Before Turfway debuted their Polytrack in 2005, NOBODY said a word about diminishing injuries. The only thing that was mentioned was not having the cancellations that racing in Cincinnati in January can bring. It wasn't until the first meet was over that Turfway management started mentioning the injuries being down. Then TVG ran with it as did the rest of media. Turfway is one track that had a legitimate reason to install a synthetic surface; these California tracks were ignorant to rush into it.

I would be careful here JJP, throwing drugs into this conversation is going to be gasoline, and their is only a few that are doing it in regards to drugs
Hono's employer is one that is most defintely not doing it in my opinion
