Stoute is claiming the turf is too hard, too firm, and jarring .... and all of the American jockeys are saying the course if "soft" - Gomez called it "slippery and soft" when ESPN interviewed him about 15 seconds after the finish line. He speculated a lot of horse might not like it because they're struggling to get traction and slipping over it.
