Call me crazy, but a racing office is not going to ditch a 10-horse field on turf unless they have a good reason to do so.

They should shut down for a few years. The cheesy post-time video convinced me that taking some time off would be good for everyone.

Good Luck Gondorf!

I like Habersham's thought on this. The racing office has a tough job, so anytime someone can come up with a legitimate thought as to why something we can't understand happens, I have learned to appreciate it. Maybe it had something to do with weather and/or turf comditions as well?

Anyhow, you are in, let's get the money!
