I feel most of us are over handicapping the race, except for top 5-6 horses we know if anything else wins it will be because of racing luck in their favor. If POTN wins then the never raced on dirt theory will not be talked about next year. it's coming maybe not this year but this factor will fade . It hasn't happened yet because maybe a horse good enough in the last 5 years has not showed up from syn-trk only races. Within a few years the top horses will have to be able to run on both with BC and other top races moving around to the non-dirt tracks.
