That was 1000% correct.
I was watching the SA cam on Saturday, when it rained in LA area, and was amazed that the entire rail area(paths 1 and 2) and a big chunk of the 7-8 path in the stretch were full of water.
The horses were working off the rail and still flying but you could see the splashing as if a little kid was jumping in puddles.
Then Sundays works were much slower than any other day in the past three weeks. Many horsemen complained of an uneven track.
It was almost like they didnt install the drainage system at SA.
Supposedly HP did not have any of the problems that SA had, and the # of workers and times of the works did not alter much.
