Aqueduct's inner track will become turf course

[pmayjr]

I thought the discussion was for the inner to become a synthetic/tapeta/poly track? Which I was in favor for.

Reason being: I was hoping to get all those NY-bred turfers who clearly don't like dirt out of the barns in the winter, as turfers seem to handle synthetic surfaces as good (if not better) as dirt horses too.

Even if you guys hate synthetic surfaces (many of you have continually flamed me for it in the past), I know you guys would rather play 8-9 horse synthetic races than 5 horse dirt fields.
