I have seen a lot of tracks large and small, but never saw something like this. Some of the The turf course races at Santa Anita are like this, too.

Good thing that they were trotters! I would be reluctant to even jog a hoppled pacer over that hazard!

This is beyond pathetic. The Gate car driver almost loses it going over the walk way.  WTF. Better off road racing with Greg Peck somewhere in PA.

The concrete path acts as a speed bump for the gate! If anyone has a chance to buy a horse that raced there, remember that the car is only going 20 mph  at the start! tmbz1
