For the most part,racing fans don't give a **** about the safety of these tracks.Just be honest about that.You look ridiculous when you try to say dirt is as safe.If you want to say dirt is easier to cap,then just do it.Please stop with the whole "dirt is just as safe " crap.You people aren't stupid.Don't act that way."Some horses race better on dirt than on synthetic," or " synthetic is hard to cap."Any of that is fine,but you look stupid when you say dirt is as safe.If you could take the same horses and race them on the same dirt and synthetic,then you would see synthetic is safer. Yes,they are gunna run some very borderline horses on the synthetic,and they will break down.Trainers know it's safer,and some think they can get away with stuff they know they can't get away with on dirt.I think Eight B would be alive and well if that race had been on a synthetic,but I don't think people care enough about horses to make the switch.Simple as that.So,we will continue to read that "it's random," and no break-down is anybody's fault(always just a normal part of the game.)If you're so addicted to dirt,then you damn sure better get more concerned with the conditions that make dirt racing safer.Churchill loves those fast hard tracks on big days,and nobody is going to change that.So expect more of the same.
