If the Arkansas Derby didn't got 1-2-3 around the track, I might want to try to make a point.

If I couldn't beat a particular surface, I'd stop playing it.

Another option, of course, would be to whine about it.

thats what i do. the bluegrass was the first main track bet i made at that rat trap of a track. and looking at the results now i know why. plus i whine about it too because that race is an absolute joke. these tracks are just so great, the sun shines it changes and melts.....real good....it rains a little at another one and it closes...all weather my @ss. i guess you had that non winner of one that looked like he did not even belong in that race and won for fun. we will see how legit that result was in a couple weeks. my guess, yet another keenland reject up the track on derby day. yeah, arkansas was speed favoring but i'll bet one of the top three will run a decent race next time.

Oh yeah, pick out one dirt race.
Take a look at the chart for Oaklawn and Kee last week.
It doesn't take a genius to figure out which track was playing fair and which one was not.
