Its interesting that Polytrack (and synthetics) in general have given the Phipps bloodlines at least a modest revival in the last couple of years.
There hasn't been this much reason for the Phipps fanclub to come out of the woodworks for a while now.
Kudos to McGaughey for not being too stubborn to put his horses on the turf/synthetics.
Of course, the alternative would have been claiming races...
