Perhaps if they had a dirt track there would be some truth to this but with that surface they are no longer impervious.

Very much agree...
The races thought to be "protected" from Indiana racing, N1X and up allowances, trainers were definitely taking horses to Indiana Downs to run for $35K on real dirt rather than $50K on poly. Turf races haven't been hurt as bad (yet), although a few N2X or AOC types went to Indiana Downs overnight stakes races instead.
Great article Citycat, by the way.
