Great news for the NYRA. More importantly, great news for racing in general. It appears that most meets throughout the country are up with a few exceptions. The fact I like is the number of starters was up 5.3%. This is huge. The number of starters per race has also increased from track to track meet per meet. This is good news for the industry as well.

New York has the best racing in the world throughout the year. But I think Spitzer is gung ho on getting rid of them (NYRA). They know how to put a good product on the track but there is no denying the corruption inside the NYRA by some people. I am also confused as to why they are always losing money. Apparently, they have a bad business model. Imagine how GREAT New York racing COULD be in they had someone in there that not only knew how to put a great product on the track but also knew how not to lose money. Maybe the NYRA can figure that out.
