thats the problem with the poly, synthetic, pro-ride. one has to project (guess) if a horse will convert to dirt and it goes the other way too. its a joke and i don't see how its any safer either.

Yes he was second coming off a seven week layoff, closing to a slow pace and how wide was he around that turn for home? Also Hollendorfer himself said he didnt necessarily needed to win this race. He had the earnings he just needed to look sharp enough. I don't have a problem with his race.
