Horses exploding with amazing turn of foot on poly? Honestly I don't see it at all. Sure on turf you see a 11 flat furlongs by a powerful closer but I honestly havent noticed Poly resembling a quality exciting turf race. I really have no issue with poly I just think the racing tends to be blah.

But the point is not if the racing style is good or not just that when the sports stars are running on dirt and then can't run on poly it isn't good for the sport. Curlin(who I really had little use for) wasn't capable of showing himself as a star on poly and that was not OK for the sport
