It certainly looked that way on Sunday night when the sprint clock was broken in the semi-final of the Hugh Duffy Open Sprint. For good measure both the winner, Royal Delight, and the second, White Woody dipped inside the old track record set by Droppys Robinho back in February. 18.39 is some clock and it could stand for a while to come as I cant see a combination of the track being so fast and real open class sprinters running for a long time.

I reckon the track was running a minimum of 20 spots quick for the sprint and 30 fast for the 525. Its about time the IGB set out guidelines to allow the racing managers to rate the going as they see it at each meeting.
