I'm hearing that there are some horses out there that are not scoping very well either. Seems some of the residue from the Pro-Ride surface is in the lungs. Curious if Honu or anyone else can confirm that scenario.

KG...I have it on very good authority as well. I was just wondering if anyone else knew of any other cases. |

I guess no one cares to discuss this particular situation. A shame really...

If the horses are breathing this junk in, arn't the jockeys?
Seems like someone would say something in public. Quote:

Maybe this could be an issue that Hammersly could discuss on Steve's show??

The 10 horse I needed to win the last race yesterday didn't look that great at the end of that race either(course I noticed later that Pedroza was looking down at the horse's legs after the horse ran well at HWD last time.) Guess trainer Jorge Gut-y-error-ass didn't have that under control(or was hoping to get sold.) I think HWD'S cushion track has worked out pretty well, and it's the most dirt-like of the synthetics. Wish they would have used that from the beginning, but they freaked out about it getting hot at Anita. So, they used some different formula Cushion track. From then until now it's been problematic. The fall meet was o.k. (with Pro-Ride,) but I still think the original cushion track at HWD is better. If you can get a clear lead in a sprint, then you have a very good chance to win. If you are part of a contested lead(at all) in a sprint, then seems like you aren't gunna win. It's weird. I prefer the original version Cushion Track. No, I do not prefer the dirt track Anita had. You couldn't win very many sprints from anywhere that was more than a couple lengths off. Just like the Malibu won by Frankel/Prado. Sit close-big advantage.
