My point is that the powers that be who create the abbreviations should accede to whatever request is most beneficial to horseplayers, and not change fundamental track abbreviations at the whim of managements unless there is something markedly different about the way races are run over what is an identical racecourse.
Equibase is 50% owned by the tracks (i.e. they are subservient) and have no choice in the matter. Your beef is with Oak Tree.
