it's not as tho turf horses will become extinct. many don't like synthetics. wait a while, for instance, hated the surface.
so some slow dirters will try synthetics before turf....big deal. or some turfers will switch if they like poly better. since poly races inherited former dirt status (which i think will change-it has to) such as the santa anita h'cap, there is more prestige in winning those races-for now.
