I didn't see a whole lot of difference in the weather here from Friday to Saturday. They worked the track for the whole card friday, and it was fine by Oaks time. Why not at least try to dry it up for the first half of the card...and if it ain't happenin'...reseal it.

They did harrow the track repeatedly Saturday. I know they floated it (not sealed it) for the Derby.

After the number of races they had by the time the
derby went off, I think it is safe to say there were many inconsistencies in the surface. So if people want to use the race as reliable information for horses at the Preakness, more power to them. People freak out enough about the inconsistent nature of judging horses going from syn. to dirt, and then make sweeping proclaimations about that track and race... Inconsistent in itself.
