Default Hey, Arlington Park?

Is that wind noise constantly in the background of the race calls, or are you seriously one of the few remaining tracks in the country that play the sound of galloping hoofbeats during the race calls? You have polytrack now - really time to lose that sound

Hopefully they are dirt tracks, where unlike poly, hooves still make sounds
