this is PURE SPECULATION on my part but it seems like some of the complaint about poly is that horses slip on it or have trouble getting into it... therefore I would think that a horse with a cuppy foot (vs ones that have fairly flat soles) would do better on the surface...But of course that contradicts the trend we have seen where turf horses are more successful over it (since most turf horses have 'platters')...but perhaps that is just a function of turf horses being more accustomend to a surface with greater 'give' to it.
