Jim Dandy:   Santa Anita a recent "hot spot":



Two more horses broke down and were euthanized over the weekend at Santa Anita, bringing the number of fatalities from racing or training to seven since the meet's traditional Dec. 26 [2008] opening.



The issue has remained heated with the ongoing controversy over the introduction the last two years of mandated synthetic tracks at Santa Anita, Del Mar and Hollywood Park.

wetware: If the synthetic track is to blame,they should scrap it.Every precaution for the horses safety should be made.

Jim Dandy: aren't they also trying to get the horses age limit raised so they are not so young when they run?

Jim Dandy: I know...but I am almost POSITIVE that I heard they were trying to get that issue rasied because of how brittle the bones still are.
