Do I love Poly? It's a surface which seems viable. It has it's own idiosyncracies. Kee Turf races has been win by favorites over 40%.They usually card 3 a day.
I completely disagree with you that the best horse is not winning the races simply because of the surface. We shall see when it happens, we already have evidence of horses coming off of the surface and winning at Oak Tree or Ellis & Saratoga from Turfway. Steve Crist's opinion does not mean much to me.

Steve Crist's opinion always matters to me.
I consider him to be the most astute writer/media guy in the business in my lifetime.
Hes been involved with all aspects of the game from writing to management, and has made nice scores on the track, and in propelling the DRF to the heights it as at today, chock full of info and stats that noone would ever have dreamed possible 10 years ago.
I don't always agree with everything he says, but when he talks I wanna listen and consider what hes saying.
