Honestly the CA dirt tracks sucked before. There wasnt a whole lot of trainer opposition before these tracks were installed. The issues is so twisted simply because the surface is only one factor in injuries. Some horses, due to conformation issues, will almost asuredly breakdown (though not necessarily fatally) eventually regardless of surface. I said some time ago the industry would regret arguing about these things in the publics eye because there really is no good answer. A problem with no answer is not what you want the public to be thinking about. Every solution you come up with will still be flawed. Goinbg back to dirt would be fine with me but anyone who thinks that the same issues wont be raised once again is mistaken.
