TAM is the best place to play turf in the winter. The only problem with that course, and I've mentioned this on a number of occasions with zero effect, is that there's an open rail towards the end of the stretch (like many other courses). What they've done there, however, is cut the grass in an 'outward' manner. This results in the field coming out late stretch. Luckily, the stewards are finally on to this and have stopped DQing horses for drifting late. (see the Gio Ponti race)
