So the Woodward and JCGC should both be 1 1/4 mile races?

Obviously it was easy at Aqueduct and a little trickier at Belmont where they had to start on the turn. I feel like Group Plan beating Wajima in 1975 ( it was a four horse field by the way ) may have been the last time.

A two mile race at Belmont without hedges to jump over is worthless.. I wouldn't mind if they coverted some of the 10f stuff to 12 and start the races in front of the stands that would be better for the on track patrons but who goes to the track anymore?
