Urban legend says the first turn was scrunched to avoid paying higher taxes, back in 1951, on a full-mile oval.

The pear-shaped config makes it nearly impossible to get hung wide early and win. BELIEVE IT OR NOT, i once profiled an ENTIRE YEAR that saw just one horse make every pole a winner from the 9 OR 10 post at one mile OR at 1 70.
