Woodbine is not having huge problems. Do you just make up things?

Why is Pletcher and other like Dutrow heading off to run on it?
woodbine IS having problems. evidently you missed that article. the wax isn't holding the other garbage in the track together. too much fiber coming to the top, and now they are allowing toe grabs to try to help the horses get a grip on it. the cold weather is the key there. just like it would be in new york. turfway had to rework their track after one year of the stuff. this new stuff is not the panacea it was sold as being.
