  • buckpasser · If you are going to invest in this scheme, READ the prospectus. Frank Stronach only cares about Frank Stronach, so I would be careful with something that sounds too good to be true, it usually is · 30 days ago ·

  • shadowno · The level playing field not my comment, but with regard to the surface, geography played a part given the tracks proximity to the San Gabriel mountains. Heavy rains and flooding/runoff from the mountains washed away part of the pro-ride surface in 2009-10 costing them racing days and $$$$$. Also, I don't believe it ever drained as advertised like the cushion track that cost multiple dates in 08.. It was a safer surface for horses, by reported fatilities, signifigantly so, even factoring in the lost days. But here (probably even more here given the state budget and miserable economy), as everywhere $$$$ talks and a closed track can't produce revenue. And with Awesome Gem that 1 win happened to be the Hollywood Gold Cup and he produced clutch efforts in the Pacific Classic, San Antonio and Goodwood in over synthetics so I'll give him credit for his ability to handle prety much anything thrown his way. · 64 days ago ·

  • footlick · the other problem with the Pro-Ride surface at Santa Anita was that they never cleared out the former surfaces completely when installing and then reinstalling the Pro-Ride, so it was never a pure surface to begin with and that added to it's instability · 64 days ago ·

  • Zenyatta-Perfection Personified · This race was the happiest one of the weekend for me. I totally agree with you, RachelLover. "Absolutely adore" Is what I would say too. He is the only horse who has been racing every year since I started following horse racing: 2007-2011. Awesome is right. · 169 days ago ·

  • zenyatta02 · Stately Victor is great on polytrack, and I believe that his owners should maybe do another race on polytrack then prep him for the Belmont. Great analysis! · 663 days ago ·
