As for your other point, I haven't heard Yonkers or Saratoga harness asking for any money from the State and they make a fraction of what NYRA does off of betting pools. I seriously doubt that NYRA will need anything from the State once the casino is running, it is hard to believe that a casino will fail in Ozone Park, New York.

So you repping that NYRA's business model without VLT's is viable? You are right Ozone Park will support people getting wied out very well. Again I would love NYRA to do well. I wished they ripped out 75 dates and concentrated the purse money but they were beaten to the punch. Sunday's card is unbettable even if MP wasnt running a terrific card.
