Thanks!
Do you think that would make the track faster?

no idea...but my immediate thought would be no...because if it's dry and loose it would be more tiring? maybe? cause they might not get a good hold on the surface...like I said I don't know...I'm probably totally wrong.

No, it's not going to make it faster.

The track(Santa Anita) was actually closed this morning because it was frozen. We are having a cold-spell out here. It was about 28 degrees there last night and this morning.

Yep, it was nice in this area. I've been riding horses!

It was just too nice to pass up even though I needed to be doing other things.

It's 3:30 in the afternoon right now and the temperature is 52 degrees. That's unheard of for Los Angeles. I can't believe how cold it is.
