The difference was noticable bigtime derby/oaks day. win pools were significantly lower for the races not allowed to be simulcasted. Derby might have been ok, but the rest of the card's pools were way, way down.
They say they were down 2%. That is great compared to Keenelands meet. If they want to cut purses 2% let them. But I'm sure it will be more. They keep digging a hole and Presque Isle opens soon.
