Yeah...The track we payed millions for is unsafe, frozen, and the jocks wont ride. Please.
Yeah I remember how with the old track they closed for like 2-3 consecutive weeks a few years ago. Cancellations were legendary with the dirt at TP.
There will be days where it is not going to be easy or safe to race in the winter in the midwest regardless of the surface, there will be problems.

You payed for the track? really?

So its back to dirt you say because its safer based on one bad month. distortion.

So its back to dirt that doesn't freeze and never requires a cancellation? more distortion.

Jocks wont ride? well who are those guys on the horses every day at TP?

You don't like the surface, that's fine. But you continually focus only on Turfway when cancellations, and breakdowns occured in greater measure in the past at TP, and at other tracks.
