Crist: Grass Sprints Become Tiring

What I want to know is who were these people asking for more turf sprints? And why are they still allowed to speak?

Not a big fan of turf sprints; especially when I'm like 2-192 handicapping them.

I think they are ok when I play socal, but NY has overdone them, and the reasons are layed out very well by Crist.

I like them a lot!!!

I guess it was a slow news week because it would seem that NYRA grass sprints are hardly a really important industry topic.

I guess with Sumwon skipping the race at Monmouth this weekend they had to go with Plan B for a news story. How is our girl doing?

True, but I'm getting pretty sick of them too. It's gotten to the point where half of the turf races run in NY are at six furlongs. That should never be.

Better hit the books on them, plenty will be run at the Spa this summer!

I have to agree, there are way too many in New York. What makes them even worse is when the turf sprints are for NY breds. It's a deadly combination to handicap. There are $5K Clm races around the country that run truer to form.
