I consider that an advantage.
It's not that I don't like turf racing, but some of my plays are bias related. When a race card is split between some combination of dirt , inner turf, main turf, synth, one turn, and two turn races it's almost impossible to figure out what was going on off a small sample of 2-4 races (let alone determine if track maintenance or weather changed something).
You can always try to outguess other serious players, but I place some value on certainty.
Given we are often working with guesstimate figures and other info, I like it when I feel confident I am actually right about a horse instead of taking a best guess.
A full card of dirt races makes it a bit easier.
