Good Luck to them, maybe in 10 years, all I know is this, the BC will stay in Kentucky , California or New York for some time. (New York, who knows. )

Two things to note:

1) Calder's sandy, deep main track is suited for the monsoonal weather that South Florida experiences in the summer; Gulfstream's composition of their dirt surface isn't

2) Expect Brunetti to request TB dates for Hialeah.

Gulfstream will quickly grow weary of the short fields and/or fewer races for their spotlight Winter meet. This should be resolved soon.
America must have the highest "goofs per capita" rating of any nation outside Antarctica.
