I NEVER MINDED DRIVING DOWN TO SHELBYVILLE TO INDY DOWNS IN THE SUMMER + FALL FOR HARNESS. FOOD IN THE CLUBHOUSE WAS DECENT AND THE ANNOUNCER WAS GOOD. WE HAD 1 IF OUR HORSES WIN AN ISS THERE.

WORST SURFACE IS INDIANAPOLIS AT THE FAIR; THAT OR RUSHVILLE

They appear to like Pocono. They often go 2-3 seconds faster than at any track before.

Red mile nice track. Exporter - might be other variables than surface at play for pocono  times but regardless that wouldnt account for all horses running faster.  I watch a few live at the saratoga track. That looks to be a quality surface and for a half mile times seem quick. Never seem to hear the bs about saratoga that one constantly hears about yonkers. Silence is often a good unappreciated sign.
