Parx Turf Course Travesty

It is unacceptable and confusing the condition of the turf course at Parx on Saturday and two horses died as a result. How in the world did they not inspect the course and allowed the races to run
on the tracks biggest day. Sad! 1

It had been closed down, inspected & HISA okay’d running over it.
Just one of the many articles on it.

Holymoly! I wouldn’t canter a horse on that let alone race! What is Parx thinking? What use is HISA?

Those suggestions are turf management 101. Water it. Fertilize it. Aerate it. Mow it. Roll/tamp divots out.

Tell me Parx didn’t know this. Come on.
