Your subject line is curious since only one trainer (not trainers) blamed Polytrack for the injuries. Incidentally, that trainer spent all summer at Arlington, so I guess Polytrack didn't bother him so much then.

Romans explicitly said he does not blame the surface, though he agreed it's an interesting sequence of events meriting scrutiny.

Bramlage, one of the most respected authorities on THE HORSE in the game, said he's a fan of synthetic surfaces.
