Instead they added 5 overnight stakes costing NYRA $500,000 NYRA money and they still do not have a 10F race for older horse at Saratoga. I think that is a disgrace for a track of Saratoga’s renown.

Don't you think it's about time NYRA started to "PIMP" Saratoga and earn some money to help support horseman.. They need money they get money from full fields with big handles and selling there best assets.. If you want to run for good money at Aqueduct on feb 18 when its 7 below zero they have to maximize the Saratoga EARN like it or not what does NYRA really have that they can make money on other then SARATOGA..
So much capital is needed to support the game in NY and all I know is there is only one way to get it..... milk your cash cow SARATOGA
