Most horsemen would agree that the most consistent track surface for the pat 15 years has been at Vernon Downs............
............fast miles ..horses staying sound..never a cancellation. Closed for traing , when the master track man says ..its closed till we get it right. Many a visiting horsemen/driver has , early in the evening complained about too much water on the track....and hours later , are telling everybody how fast their horse went... Too much water on a track....Buddy Gilmour several times said, when he heard of complaints.."You cannot put too much water on a track"
The guy in charge of the Vernon track works many hours each day...to keep his track "right"
Tony Rossi is his name.........Vern
on horsemen speak highly of him !
He retires in 30 days.............
..............may
be Yonkers should consider hiring him as a consultant...to oversee the track and put in the groundworks to eliminate all these cancellations which really hurt the owners , trainers and drivers...and discourage the bettors from following Yonkers
What do you say Joe
?? you call the shots
