John Shirreffs, a harsh critic of the synthetic surfaces, claims the reduction in catastrophic breakdowns during the afternoons is more than offset by the casualties during morning workouts. "And the horses that get hurt in the morning are the promising young horses," he said.
Said Melvin Stute: "I've had nine horses put down in 40 years, and five of them have been since the synthetics."
