I'm not surprised that you have talked to trainers that are concerned with the clumping at Turfway.

The only thing I'm saying is that it works well in places where the weather is moderate. Here at Hollywood Park, it is a huge improvement over what we had before.
Richie,we are getting fields of 10,12,and 14 horses out here in December.Something is going right.

I will tell you this much.With the weather SOCAL has from April -December,if you add in the cushion track(I don't know about what synthetic Anita is using,)this area is gunna have a lot (a whole lot) of healthy happy horses(and they are gunna feel like running more often, too.)We are gunna have big fields with highly competitive racing.It works here(may not work everywhere.)
