I've heard this as well-- that the turns at Pimlico are actually the same as at Churchill. However, I heard on ATRAB the other day that while "tight turns" is a myth, there is a definite crown in the track at Pimlico that disadvantages horses in the outside posts. Does anybody know which posts are most affected by this crown?
