I just think that while the Ellis and Laurel takeout slices are great and should be supported, it's a bad idea to put them up against Saratoga and Del Mar and expect to get overwhelming increases in handle. It's just very tough to bet ELP and LRL instead of SAR and DMR, especially if you're at one of those tracks every day like many are.
I think if Laurel keeps the low takeout through the winter, that's when you'll see major results, because it's much easier to take handle from the AQU inner than from SAR.
