Have I read that right or is it another poorly constructed news release?

If it's correct is it a fact that the gates for the AWT racing in winter have to be moved across the main turf track or are they talking about an inside training track?

Does anyone know?

I don't! but as always, I be fascinated by 'Unbidden', by 'Unforeseen circumstance'.  I do know, I feel for any staff that are working their butts off but get blindsided by 'bad design', bugger... :(

It's the AWT. They did the same previously.

I don't understand your comment.

Do they move the gates across the race turf to change race starts for the AWT?

If they do doesn't that defeat the purpose of another an AWT to lessen wear and tear on the turf in winter?
