Ask away. He allows us to post all we want on the computer set up for personal use as long as the work gets done and we don't post pictures of people or attack people personally and don't post on finalturn.

You're a clown.

A week ago you were a $2,000 a race betting, law grad with a girlfriend setting up a meeting at Saratoga which you never showed for.

Now your a file clerking flunky sharing a one-bedroom with 4 of your closest friends.

On second thought, let Votta know I'll be calling HIS boss.

I wonder if Pillow Pants knows Listerfiend...

I believe Dickinson has patented the process of wax coating sand. Therefore, if another company wins a bid to install, Dickinson still gets paid because they all use on-site wax coating of sand. Dickinson's patented process.

Thats not true. I specifically read that california chose a company from which he got squat. His patent isnt the only patent out there on how to make the varieties of stuff. Look up the article, he was only getting paid on the patent if they chose Polytrack over his own company in which case he would have gotten it all. They chose neither and went with another company.

Dickinson has the best stuff out there. It is called Tarpeta, but I believe Keeneland owns part of the company that puts down polytrack, so I doubt Tarpeta will ever see that track. Tarpeta though is likely to be used on many training tracks. One of the Belmont training tracks might get it. It is going to be very common in the future for training tracks to be synthetic and the main track dirt. This way you can train if you want on one and if you don't like it you can just work on the main track.

There's a lot Dickinson talk here.

How well has Dickinson been doing since 2000? 2001? I thought so. His boys have been training on that material at his place. I haven't seen any speed from his horses in the past. Hasn't had any. Bellamy Road? Went to Zito, then was lights out for a race.

I'm sorry, but he's not winning, and his horse are training on it.

How I see it, as a new comer to this sport

Facts

- Less horses breaking down so far, considerably less

- Less days cancelled because of track conditions

Opinion

Everything else.

Let time tell the tale. I am no expert, I don't hold a candle to the wind of most on here but I have enough sense to know that in due course if the above two trends hold water and continue at their current pace (in other words considerably less breakdowns most importanly) then what is not to like about the surface assuming it is not harmful to those working around it daily. Are some of you telling me you would rather see more breakdowns on dirt then less on Poly?

On the subject of breeding, it will take care of itself. It has no choice. It has been in evolution for hundreds of years, subject to change and will continue to evolve. So be it that a horse like With A City might steal a race because of the surface. Some will lose, some will gain.
