Well it will be up to each individual track to make the call. IMO Woodbine, Turfway, Aqueduct INNER TRACK or any cold weather track could benefit from a synthetic surface. Santa Anita, Churchill, Gulfstream Saratoga, Belmont do not need a synthetic surface. But it is the tracks call, not mine.

They all will eventually go to tarpeta for their training tracks. It is just much easier on the horse and owners love the cheaper vet bills and knowing they will get more races out of their horse.

Oh I think every training track should go to a synthetic surface.
