poly, in all it's brand names, is a different surface. it's not dirt, it's not turf, and ability on one of those two surfaces will not indicate ability on awt. there's no correlation, there's nothing you can draw from a performance on one of those surfaces to enable you to conclude how a horse will perform when moved to a different surface. it's not an equalizer.
