ohhhhh...so now it's top class grade 1 turf horses in the past five years. your original post was about running a turfer in the mud. they ran a turf horse on a dirt track, owners decision. it turned out to be muddy. my contention was that any time a turf race is moved to the main track, it's due to rain, and that quite often the horses entered run regardless, which would mean in the mud.

but had i been able to read between the lines of your original post, no doubt i'd have realized that you meant only grade 1 top class turf horses. my apologies.
