You are absolutley correct Bid. But he did not so you can't blame me. I guess SA will go with Pro Ride but nobody has contacted me yet.

Shirreffs is one of the good guys in racing, and is a terrific, conservative trainer. If he says that there are more hind-end injuries, then that is more than likely the case. I trust his judgment.
it doesn't take connections to know that the dirt surfaces out there had been needing help for a while.
give it a rest already.

The track has tightened back down the times should be pretty close to normal today . It really is pretty cool that we had rain off and on for 3 days and training never stopped , the track did get slower but as I said before when it rains its going to be slower.
