Louisiana Downs had a sizable increase in handle mid-meet last year when more attention was paid to post times. There are a lot of bettors out there whose only criteria for betting is which race is next.

During their meet Tampa stays a good amount of time away from GP and Aqu and their races are almost always isolated in terms of competition. The fact that they are an early signal helps a lot because the east coast simulcast players who start their day with Aqueduct have Tampa just a few minutes before and immediately start looking at their races. They often end up staying with them the rest of the day.
