The 7/8 Mohawk is in the exact location of the old 5/8 Mohawk, so I'm not sure where you're going with that comparison.
Unless they moved the escarpment.

And you play the horses. How do you explain going from a 5/8's to a 7/8's without reconstruction, the whole track was redone.

He mentions the effect of the location due to the escarpment. I do play horses. Enough to know the location  did not change relative to the escarpment.

The track was rebuilt and reconfigured thus the base was altered. The escarpment is subject to all different kinds of weather and temps. Relatively a new base then expect the unexpected.

Yur a moron.

I saw something about that in the off time

You know any more about this?

From what I remember reading was that when the change was made all of the drainage was redone and the composition of the base and surface was changed. I saw a above view and the track is like a tear drop with the large sweeping far turn.

Yes that’s the way it’s always been
Long sweeping last turn
I like it like that
