I think the win in your in day at Saratoga did nothing to help the track. I hope they go back to the old structure next year.
if that's the case, then it's just a bunch of trumped up hype that should be gone anyway. If you win and you're in, that should cover the gate fees, etc.... but unfortunately, that also makes sense.
