Slanted Starting Gate

[Charlie]

Does anyone know which tracks are using a slanted starting gate. I'd like to know which outside PP horses were aided by this factor when acquiring the lead. Any responses would certainly be appreciated.

Here's an earlier thread on the staggered starting gate (http://www.paceadvantage.com/forum/showthread.php?t=48308&highlight=staggered)

Thanks for the info, but what I was looking for was not info about slanted starting gates, but rather the banking of certain tracks. Some have a slope which gives the outside horses an early speed advantage. I was wondering if anyone knows what tracks do this. Well anyway, it was my mistake seeking the wrong info. But like I said, thanks anyway for the link.

Nearly all tracks are banked today, even if only slightly.

Even the Meadowlands has an approxmiate 3% bank, after being reduced from 5% (in controversy) a few years ago to make the track more acceptable to T-Breds.
