Racino issue failed after the Firm who was hired to promote the on track slots did a horrible job. If RD goes down it will take many nearby family owned businesses with it. With a Racino and increased purses, IMO it could be a jewel.

And everytime I go there on the weekends, there are really great on-track crowds (which is quite amazing considering the product). But there is a bit of family atmosphere mixed in with the hard core types.
I always thought they missed the boat not having night racing, especially considering how muggy Cincy summers can be.
