Pre poly Keeneland was like training on a minefield. Belmont is bad when it rains. Saratoga main track has way too many breakdowns on it for me, especially considering the quality of horses there (but it may be against the law in the Peoples Republic of NY to say anything negative about Saratoga), Gulfstream sucks but you cant say that or frank gets mad, never trained at Palm Meadows, Hialeah was always good but gone noe, Fair Grounds is pretty good but not as good as it was (but they get the Katrina pass for right now) complaining about the surfaces at Monmouth is required in order to get a license in NJ, Delaware has a horrible reputation

and not just for track surface from what I understand.

LMFAO....I guess it depends on what side of that you are on.

Had a very interesting sit down with a former racing secretary there one day at an OTB....very insightful is all I will say
