people rushed to hollywood because it was felt the cushion would be better than the typical trick out there. maybe it is, but i don't think it's working the miracle that so many thought it would. it has its own issues. and i don't think smack dab in the middle of their season is when they should be trying to figure this out.

Do you even watch these races at Hwd? Do you see a bias going on here? I sure don't.I just saw David Flores steal a race by a neck,and earlier I saw Top This N That come off the pace.I think it is a fair track,and if people think it hurts speed,it is probably because speed has a bias in it's favor on these other tracks(not because there is a bias against speed on this cushion track.)As far as I'm concerned,I am all for this stuff.Yes,they have to get used to taking care of it,but I am not seeing the inside/outside unfair/uncappable b.s. that occurs on dirt.So,bitch all you want,but it is staying.Anita concrete comes in late December,and I am sure the speed trainers(Baffert n' Headley) will win at a 30-50% clip.
