And what of the windchill? It is Aqueduct. Synthetic tracks are designed to hold lots of water. When it is under 32 degrees, water freezes. When you cant put water on the track it gets way too loose. When you put water in at cold temperatures, it freezes and balls up. Hence the issue with cold and synthetic.

And I never believed any thing MD said when he was training, why should it be any different now?
