Did they move the Gulfstream timers to Santa Anita?

Heard from Jay Privman on site that they're going to be re-checking all the timings.

Maybe they can go to a 3 1/2-inch cushion to take some of the "speed-favoring concrete highway" away

You don't know what you're talking about. Sorry.

I know today the track was advertised as having a 3-inch cushion, and the track sure seems to be carrying speed from what I've watched. Sorry for daring to have an opinion. Not. There are multiple horses today that have outrun their figures. Maybe it is a timer problem. Or maybe the track is pretty darn firm and fast.

It wasn't speed favoring though...not even close. The results back it up. |

It's fast, but i don't think it's favoring speed very much. Caracortado wouldn't of gained that much (late in the Malibu.) On speed favoring tracks, you see closers that are hopelessly out of position. They will be way too far back in the middle of the race.

Yes, I like synthetics, but I'm excited SA went back to dirt. I'll be happy to take back the "concrete" remark as an overstatement, but yeah, I absolutely do think the track was playing fast and to speed today, especially after the 4th, and if you think my opinion is crap, feel free to bet against it. We'll have to see if they slow it down in the next few days after it's now dried out. You know, by maybe harrowing it a little deeper.
