I always felt they "KNEW" what they were doing when they put a turf course in there.. That track is gorgeous.. would be great if they got some more dates.

no surprise at all. they have been talking development for a while now--no way they'd install a new surface when they aren't looking at being around long term. why bother?
and yeah, there are too many tracks-that more than anything leads to the diluted fields.

but would Santa Rosa be willing to drop in a synthetic surface to be eligible for those dates? I don't think Dixon is going to fly.

in cali its poly or the highway...so build your stupid condos bay meadows.

Good point! I was thinking about that same situation. One would belive that SR would have to go synthetic to get any dates other then fair racing.
