Title: WATCH THE RAIL
Post by: TGJB on May 02, 2019, 05:40:33 PM

They had a dead rail on the dirt opening night at CD, and on the grass at the Breeder\'s Cup. Weather is coming, pay attention.

I suppose its possible they could seal the track again like 2017?

My head is beginning to spin.

We\'ve caught off turf courses on some really big days lately:

Last years Derby Day with an X rail, Breeders Cup with an X rail and the Pegasus Cup with a bog.

Turf rail is definitely dead, Jocks are avoiding it like the plague
