With that said, it is a beautiful facility, but you can tell that the focus was on making it a "casino experience." Just my take... |
Agreed completely.
It's not "racing-friendly," as the grandstand is insanely small and the building is just built awkwardly for racing...but it's mostly a glorified casino really.
It truly is a beautiful facility though and I couldn't think of many other places I'd rather spend an afternoon with some friends. It's really gorgeous.
