I didn't make a single bet today but noticed not only was the track favorable to outside closers, it just looked like the horses weren't running smoothly over the surface and I can't figure out why.
I'm thinking maybe there was more dirt than usual but times were on par.
Rain tonight so will have a better idea when it dries out. Likely for Saturday.
If you don't already, do yourselves a favor and pay close attention to horses using 1/4 inch bends.
Over the main track, horses using them had a distinct advantage and it was supported by the results.
The inner track historically has been a surface where traction shoes, just as much on a fast track as a wet one, gave horses a huge edge.
I'm actually switching back to cablevision so I get the live feed from NY.
Neither TVG nor Hrtv gives the shoe info because the don't consider it important.
Way more important to them to put Spanish pronunciations where they don't belong.
