Anyway, the good news is that so far I haven't heard any complaints. As of right now, things couldn't look any better. Hopefully things will look just as good once they start racing over it.

Sounds like a good thing. Anything that cuts down on injuries and deaths to the horses gets my approval.
I hope the run as well over it as they train on it.
We'll know soon enough.
