I heard if you hover over the Turfway surface in a helicopter or hot air balloon, around the far turn I believe, you can actually see the Virgin Mary in the polytrack.

Well, if a likeness of Battaglia's dupa is hovering in the air over the far turn, it's 2-1 it will be hit by a landing jet.

as much as people call on god and jesus christ at the track, you'd think they'd be there too.

I bet if it rains much more the surface will float away and that will get them started on the re installation project.
