They are now a cheap track, so why not resort to gimmicks, handle will probably be down...

I think it's a good idea. Of course I don't fear change because i'm not one of the 80 year olds at the track.

It's the future and i'm looking at it with a positive attitude. The handicapping aspect will get easier through time and added data.

I went walking on it at Keeneland a couple weeks ago. you can tell how much softer it is than traditional dirt tracks... it smells like a rubber factory.

Oh and the debate about the polycrap continues. Add Kee & Hollywood to the list of tracks (already Woodbine and Turfway) that wont get any of my $$$ no matter how big the race is...

Yes it does stink very badly, one time at Turfway it was very windy and that garbage was all over the parking lot. Unless, it is totally different surface, wait to they get a whiff of that stuff at KEE this weekend...
