so with that in mind, if we are going to win the state of CA, we have to beat them on the safety issue.
we need horses to start getting hurt and breaking down.
the sooner the better.
have you seen those TVG "cushion track" propaganda commercials.
they interview like 10 trainers about the new, "safe", surface.



and dont act like horse players are so freaking concerned about the safety of horses.
dont tell me that when your horse is in a dog fight in the stretch, that you are not hoping for something to go wrong with the other horse.
