Trakus at Del Mar
I don't understand why Trakus does not spin the running positions as the horses are starting to approach the stretch? I know Del Mar does not have the chicklets like other tracks, but it makes no sense to keep the running positions 1st to last going left to right, since the horses are running away from them and it's awkward to look back as they are running away. If saddle clothes were easy to pick up it might be different, but then why have trakus if that was the case?
