Also the big NY owners arent going to care if there Mdn Spl is 56k at Spa and Monmouth's is 81k. They will continue to race their best in SPA anyway.. I do think AP and WB will have their producted dug into.

AP is already screwed this year, they have supposed lost two trainers (Donnie Von Hemel and Steve Hobby) which is about 45-50 horses, and Hector Magana is now running a training farm down in Ocala.
Bring on the Golden Gate type racing, I am all for it.
