Charles Town is pretty much just a stones throw away, and every night they have tons of people from the DC-MD-VA metro area heading up there to play the slots. Plus Dover, Harrington, Delaware Park, now Philly are just 2-3 hour trip.
I like your optimism but I seriously doubt MD gets slots any time soon, if ever for that matter. The state has 3 “big” racing days (IMO) Black Eyed Susan, Preakness, and Maryland Million (maybe the DeFrancis Dash would be a 4th). Canceling one of the biggest races of year does not have me hopeful about the future of racing in the state of MD.
Hate to bring this up, but I also wouldn’t be in shock in Frank and the boys try to make another push to move the Preakness to another track
