The SoCal horsemen are not happy with ANY of the synthetic surfaces. Didn't like 20 horses die at the short Delmar meet this year. It has been widely reported lately.

One things is sure, a mix of dirt and synthetics isn't going to benefit anyone out there.

Since when are tracks taking horseman's desires into consideration? Especially when they will have to dig back into their pockets to do so and even more importantly admit the surfaces installed were no good. There is a better chance of me being treated for anorexia than that happening.
