Hollywood Park is History today

Lemons Forever and lawyer Ron despised it. Oh and how did the winners on Ky Cup day do afterwards? They all went absolutely nowhere.
Ny is acting very prudently with its wait and see attitude. My guess? My guess is that tracks on the East Coast will get an even bigger kick after so many horses out west start running poorly on polytrack and trainers and owners start bitching about a lack of form. Gulfstream will boom even more, and Ny will as well.
Its just not a dirt replacement, thats the problem. We don't have horses who are bred for polytrack and making speed figures on it is very hard, which means big players will say no thanks.
Lets face it, this is all about money. The three-four companies who market this stuff aren't at all concerned with horse health, they are concerned with getting contracts and cash. Trainers out west will soon find training a completely different way to be very hard and against everything they learned their whole lives, hard to start fresh after 20-30 years of doing something the same way. Its a specialists surface, and as soon as owners think they don't have a specialist, they will send those horses East to run on dirt. I'd love to own the shipping companies in California come winter/springtime, the flights will be overbooked nonstop.
