I hope they don't waste the paper and ink and put it in the hard copy. The Bloodhorse seems to me to be in a decline.

Somthing I have always questioned is where is the money? I dont know if any of you remember. About 25-30 years ago Remington had an artificial track. It was supposed to be similar to the euro tracks. The horsemen, writers, jockeys, and anyother person remotely involved in the industry complained about it. I thnk it was there 2yrs before they were forced to replaced it. We heard all the pluses of the surface voiced the same way back then but it was never accepted or adjusted to.. What I see now as the big differance is Keenland versus Remington Is it someting so simple as ,"wheres the money"? Who is pocketing the profits from selling this stuff?

Keeneland owns 50% of the polytrack put in North American tracks, Martin Collins LLC owns the other 50%. Michael Dickinson owns Tapeta. I have no idea who owns Cushion track.

The PR people for these artifocial surfaces have done a great job. First the included Keenland in there profit making and then learned to use stats to make you look like a dirty commie if you opposed the artificial surface.
