This comment was received at the Melbourne office of Pro-Ride Racing Australia:

"Kudos to Pro-Ride Racing and their synthetic track surface. My filly was sent to Skylight Training Center under the guidance of trainer Tom Drury for an intro to track life after breaking. It was my first experience as an owner having a horse on the surface. I was very impressed. It was a kind forgiving surface with substance and stability. A super product to introduce the young horses to training. I knew Niall O'Callaghan had his horses there and many other top trainers. And since moving to the Skylight Training Center my trainer is now legging up other top trainer's young or rehabilitating horses like Frank Brothers, Ralph Nicks, Wayne Lucas and Bill Mott on the surface. So it's evident I'm not the only one to like what I see."
