Why no talk about the 6 horses that died in Pamona in 2 weeks and the who know's how many that were pulled up and hauled off? , Why no talk about the horses that breakdown every night at Los Al , or every other race track in America?

Probably because we heard enough about dirt breakdowns when synthetics were being hailed as the miracle surface. Of course, that hailing was coming from those lining their pockets with the installations.

Turf Paradise has a dirt track and a new Turf course. season started last week and goes till May 2nd. They had over 3,000 stall applications for 1800stalls. Best days to bet is Monday Tuesday when the pools are 2-3 million dollars. Great weather and racing. Its a small track, but puts out a good product.

It doesnt matter if they run on marshmellows if the people who are in charge of their care dont start looking at the way they treat the horses it is just going to be the same ole same o.
