A lot of tracks are considering switching to polytrack surfaces. Woodbine is the latest. Many handicappers seem to believe that turf runners like the polytrack surface better than a more standard dirt surface.
If polytrack becomes widely popular over the next decade and a lot of major stakes races start getting run over it, I wonder if there will be a slight shift in the breed over the very long haul if more turf pedigrees and turf horses begin winning major non-turf stakes.
I also wonder if the Europeans will eventually start dominating our non-turf races too.
