The track at Santa Anita was set up to use as an emergency use only and they will not use the surface again in that condition. The races will be cancelled today and they will start to work on repairing the drainage problems with a new mix of the existing surface.

Now if other tracks around the world start recording 6f times in the parking lot of Lowes then it's a world record, until then it's just trivia.

look, i understand about the track, the surface, and the speedy times being laid down.
but unless the timer malfunctioned, it'll go in the record books. it may not make it right, and the time may be an anomaly...but this isn't the first time a record was broken by a horse not considered to be a really good horse.
