they have a large interest in the stuff. I think they are partners with Martin Collins, who invented the polytrack.

Obviously you did not know much about the track at Keeneland Before Poly or you would not have asked that Question.

It was single handedly the worst Surface of any race track in the Country. I have seen first hand, horses would run down just Galloping over the old surface. And talking about a track Bias Old Keeneland had Probably the worst. Many times I have seen 8 races on the dirt and 8 races were the horse that made the lead won. It was incredible the front end bias there. And if it came up Sloppy there was no Chance for A closer. if you did not have speed you did not win.

I am not saying Polytrack is the answer for the Future but something had to be done about the surface at Keeneland.
