Default arlington-breakdowns

well management has finally wisened up here and was supposed to have dug up the track yesterday and closed the main track for training today and maybe tomorrow to see whats causing all the problems with the horses and unfortunately a unusual rate of breakdowns. it isnt just this year it was also last year with alotta the horses coming off the track bad and cheap horses running in ridiculously fast times, im just upset the track couldnt see the red flags themselves and it hada be the horsemen speaking up themselves for action to be taken. arlington is my fav place in the world but i have to admit things arent heading in a positive direction this year, from the racetrack itself to the whole molly ryan(short time pre prerace analysist) debacle

I'm with you, fix it. I've seen too many maidens running 1:10 and change.
