I like how the field will split in those races with about half going to the outside rail and about half going to the inside rail.

Funny how not many people complain how many horses they run in races over there. Unlike our Kentucky Derby.

The course is wider than Churchill, the radius of the turns are much greater (if there are turns, this particular 29 horse field ran a straight course), therefore they can accomodate the larger fields safely.

I'm sure you already knew that, so I am confused as to why you would even make that statement.
