i read that article yesterday, and figured sooner or later it would show up here.
california didn't participate, so the study isn't inclusive of all tracks. then there's mention in the article about people running unsound horses on synthetic, thinking that the track is some kind of miracle worker.
so, altho at first glance you think that both tracks have similar statistics, a bit of reading shows that isn't exactly the case. seems as tho the article would have things in it that would appeal to both 'sides' of the debate, while settling the argument for neither.
