Horses for the course, sure. Horses that will consistently run 4+ points worse on one dirt track over another? You're living in a dream world based on very few data points bud.
The only conclusion one could possibly make about Lava Man, is that he didn't ship well. I remember people jumping to the conclusion that he didn't like Del Mar poly because of one race. Until he came back to win that same race the following year, 2 points faster.
Skip Away couldn't get a number at Churchill Downs? LOL He ran two races there in a 38 race career and that's the conclusion you got? Nevermind he did run a 110 Beyer in the final race of his career. His other race at CD (the Derby), followed a massive top just a few weeks earlier in the Bluegrass.
For there being 100s of examples, you chose two really awful ones to try to make your case.
