well.....dunno.

see, lava man runs well on both. but i think everyone knows what happens when you try to make hard and fast rules--especially when it comes to horse racing.

oh wait. hello. lava man, grandson of slew. maybe slew-lines will like that polycrap garbage.

i would think tho that you would have to do better if you train where you would run. but again, you can't make a rule for everyone. some horses ship well, some adapt well. thing is, lava man again--supposedly he can't ship, but he seems to adapt well to differing surfaces. so why would the problem be in the shipping?

ok
too many thoughts going on now, and it's past my bedtime.
