So, while several are disgusted at the Keeneland meet and Polytrack, perhaps it is just the PolyCrap brand.. I have had the opportunity to feel all four brands and I came to the conclusion that Polytrack was the worst. I don't have a problem with synthetic surfaces if they are a true DIRT substitute, which Polytrack clearly is not. What do the rest of you think?

I don't have a huge sample to base this on, and I haven't been watching much HOL racing, but I get the feeling that you're dead on with this.
