will it translate to churchill? i don't know. they claim that the hot springs and louisville track are remarkably similar. we'll see.

I think the surface at Oaklawn is top notch. I just wish the meet was a little longer.

No turf racing is why I never play it. It is a filler track for me when I am bored

plenty of other places for turf, one is in your backyard!

i just found that if you study oaklawn a bit its pretty consistent, formfull, with decent payouts.

I like Oaklawn a lot, but they run in my offseason. No turf course is fine by me.
