This makes very little sense.  More likely the Aqueduct part is pure BS and they want to put a synthetic surface in at Belmont so that Cuomo the thief can close the deal on his grand heist of Aqueduct for the State. 
 
Why put in a synthetic track when the trend of those who have had them is to go back to a dirt surface?  The inner surface seems to work just fine, though I have heard from a few riders that it badly needs to have the base redone.
