Closing day at a track that never came off the turf before they installed the synthetic surface.

The new trend at Keeneland of rushing to take races off the turf is an absolute admission that they have two turf courses....and no dirt ones.

maybe eventually tracks who have a turf course won't. a lot of money to maintain them, isn't it? that thought just came to me, is that what might evenetually happen at some tracks?
