Blacktwind -

1) Meeker's leaving CD has nothing to do with the relevance of my post.

2) Regarding NYRA - it's absolutely my favorite racing venue, bar none. Won three Grade 1 races there last year (Suburban, Hopeful and Champaigne). I love NYRA. You obviously know alot more than I do as to why the franchise is being auctioned off. I wish it wasn't.

3) No Magna infomercial. Just trying to provide some insight from my experiences in the game.

Best of luck to you. You might be interested in viewing the ESPN horse board. Lots more irrelevant bashing going on there.
