Why no talk about the breakdowns at Santa Anita this weekend?

A very nice Grazen looks to have broken his leg and pulled up and Blackbriar limping across the wire.
Im mean seriously who in their right mind after seeing this is going to bring their nice horse from over seas and run on that sh*t surface. After watching 100s of races on conv. dirt from different tracks across the country the only breakdown I see is on POLYCRAP.
Cali racing is a joke, polytrack/pro ride or whatever you want to call it is a joke and The Fat Man your a joke for sticking up for that sh*t.
Made me want to puke after watching that. I for one would not bring my horse to the BC this year if I was the connections of any decent horse in the world.

I believe 2 horses broke down at Belmont on Sat.
