Arlington Breakdown Info - The truth

[JJP]

I don't think I agree with Christine, at least completely. Yes, the trainers are partly responsible. But these are the same people who train at Hawthorne, and there was no outcry about breakdowns there. For one thing, the breakdowns are almost all in the same spot; near the far turn on the main track. They've had problems with their surface being biased the past few years. I think the easy way out is for the track president to claim its the horseman's fault, and not his surface.
