didn't more of arlingtons and del mars breakdowns occur earlier in the meet, not later?? i believe that was the case, and it was felt by many that the change in tracks was the primary culprit.
maybe trainers just need to be a lot more patient when introducing a horse to a new surface.

Both tracks were worked on due to the high percentages of breakdowns. Which maybe the reason for less breakdowns towards the end of the meets, but I don't seem to recall any let up at Del Mar and I really didn't pay much attention to Arlington.
