Default Why no talk about the breakdowns at Santa Anita this weekend?

After all the very good racing at Belmont on Saturday with the off track conditions and no horses going down to injury on conventional dirt and friend of mine comes to me and say he loves Lethal Heat at SA in the 6th right before the JCGC. So I throw a few bucks on the horse and proceed to watch the race. And what to my dismay do I see?? Two nasty f*cking breakdowns in the stretch. A very nice Grazen looks to have broken his leg and pulled up and Blackbriar limping across the wire.
Im mean seriously who in their right mind after seeing this is going to bring their nice horse from over seas and run on that sh*t surface. After watching 100s of races on conv. dirt from different tracks across the country the only breakdown I see is on POLYCRAP.
Cali racing is a joke, polytrack/pro ride or whatever you want to call it is a joke and The Fat Man your a joke for sticking up for that sh*t.
Made me want to puke after watching that. I for one would not bring my horse to the BC this year if I was the connections of any decent horse in the world.
