Trust but verify you say in your article.

So:

Why has Gulfstream Park has chosen the route it has chosen? Why isn’t it being made clear to horseplayers that these “about 7.5 furlong” races are really much closer to mile races, and often times even more than a mile? I don’t have the answers to these questions.

Yet here's the latest "about 7 1/2f" turf race from GP:

Race 6, 1/7/18: It lists a run up of 153 feet. That's 12 feet short from being dead smack between 7.5f and 8f.
