Jim Lawson became CEO of Woodbine in 2015. Shortly after, Woodbine switched from 'Polytrack' to 'Tapeta' in 2015 (I believe 2016 may have been the first Woodbine Tapeta race).
The biases of promoting the Woodbine 'brand', as well as his role of chairman, with associations of success and horse safety, pose a significant
conflict of interest..
A red flag that compromises the integrity of this promotion.��
That alone is enough to take these promotions with a grain of salt.
I have no information regarding whether or not he also has any stake in Tapeta the company, or in construction processes such as overseeing installation of Tapeta, maintenance of Tapeta etc...
