The dog owners can ship out of state to another track. And to be brutally honest, if they decide to shut down horse racing in Massachusetts, I would be fine with that too. Massachusetts cannot support racing anymore, period. Without slots.....there is no revenues coming in and these tracks cannot support themselves. Suffolk Downs is a disgusting place and I honestly don't go there that much because of this fact. I wish I lived in a state that supported horse racing more, but I don't. I have had to step over people lying down outside Suffolk just to get in the door. I have stood next to people that have messed their pants at the track. The fact is that Massachusetts cannot support racing of any kind without help from slots / casinos and that simply is not going to happen.
