I've heard it said before by racing officals there years ago that people who come to the track "like the two-turn dirt races the most" because they start right in front of the crowd.
Obviously, it's the total opposite for handicappers. You hate seeing a single isolated stand-alone race because they're a pain in the ass to gauge when you review them after the race is over.
I don't think you can ask them to try and stack days up where they run 3 or 4 of these races a day - and than have long gaps where they go several days without running any.... but, if they're going to keep up this one-a-day dirt route trend ... having wind direction information becomes even more useful.
