The Santa Anita track - while a synthetic - isn't polytrack and races seem to be a little more truer.

As horrible as Asmussen's stats are on synthetic tracks - it makes you wonder if Curlin will be as overwhelmingly superior on it as he would be to all other horses in training over a natural dirt surface.

I witnessed Asmussen lose with each of his first 21 post time favorites at Presque Isle Downs meet last year - and 10 of those 21 were less than even money. Many of which looked on paper like they had to fall down to lose...and ran awful races.
