No chance, whatsoever, unless you are out of the horrendous 'Kick-Back'

yes the attrition rate on dirt is higher than any other surface

its also massively rail biased (to front running speed)

^ correct - Nad Al Sheba definitely a better, and fairer, track.

Meydan being just a big HOTEL complex and 'show-off Palace' for the Sheikhs.

NEVER a proper Racecourse in the memory of man -

- even many Turf races can be an embarrassment aswell.
-----

The change to DIRT being just to attract the AMERICANS for merely ONE race per year

Even the change to Tapeta did not work - mind you, has THAT worked at Newcastle, too? -  there also appears to be something  wrong with the LAY-OUT  at Meydan, though...

Makes Chester look more like Pontefract.

You can see that when they designed Nad Al Sheba they put a lot of thought into the design and then worked hard at building up the quality of the races.

Meydan was just a cash grab ie just maybe a bigger more grander race track and then switch to Tapeta to appease the AR lobby.
