You have to wonder whether the hard, fast track on Florida Derby Day caused a prior condition to resurface. This is the part of the tracks' fascination with souped-up racing surfaces that never ceases to amaze me. Sure, maybe you'll put on a show that might fool the uninformed masses that attend "big race" days, but at what cost to your horse population down the road.
