24.69 49.51 1:14.52 140.55 1:47.01 (fav 3rd, 1 & 2 betting favs finished 1,2)

horses are winning on the front end, some are coming from off the pace to finish on the board. seems like a fair surface.

Thanks Sumitas,
Looks like it's ok. Might slow them a tick, but fair to all.
I've heard that some horses really take to it. Then there are some that like macadam. I wonder how some of these will do when they run on a different surface.
As long as they run safe, that's enough to get my vote.

it's the same surface for all the contestants, and if it's safe, i agree, what's the problem ?
i see what you're saying on the splits, the times might be just a tick (1/5 sec) slower than the dirt but are really quite similar.

Hahaha,

I don't mind the polytrack and welcome it, but the thought of someone whacking off to it really got me tickled.
