Edit: Per Matt Hagerty, that actually beats the last BC hosted at Belmont by a pretty wide margin ($124MM)

I see now that they changed it. When I checked it earlier it said $19 million on track and $150 million ISW. In California there are 3 figures, on-track, ISW, and then ITW. There was nothing listed for ITW, so I figured they did $169 million($150 million ISW plus the $19 million on track), not including ITW. So I figured that including ITW, it was probably around $180 million. Now I see that NY does not show a separate ITW figure. It must be included in the on-track figure.
Now I see the chart says the ISU figure is $131 million, not $150 million, as it showed earlier. Anyway, $150 million is still a huge number. Congrats to NYRA!
