Stronach has all the money in the world to buy the New York Tracks. His MEC isnt doing all that well because they keep taking one time charges that hurt their bottom line. Just read the MEC end of year report from 2005 and it explains all that.
Churchill only charges $2 to get in the doors with the exception of Derby and Oaks day. You can get in on Derby day for $40. Travers is costs $25 to get it. So only $15 more for the biggest horse race in the world. That is not a bad deal at all.
Churchill also doesnt need a detention barn because of their new drug policy. So a detention barn is pointless in Kentucky.

AMEN. Non-profit=Scam. Let's stop putting the Travers in the same category at the derby too. The derby is so far superior to the travers it isn't even funny.
