As for your bolded part above , isn't that part of the problem with GP. How do they only card one 2 turn race at that distance that day and call themselves a major race track (nyra did a better job on wood day imo).

A track can be kind to front end speed going two turns and less so in one turn affairs. Or the other way around. The track WAS NOT UNFAIR Florida Derby Day. Period.
Gulfstream can't run 8.5f races, so it may be tough to put a 9f race together for elsewhere on the card. AQU has the Excelsior to run Wood Day, so it works out great.
