200% increase in total handle, then I would term it a success.

The haters who thought 25% increase was a pipe dream have no answer.

Let's face it is a success so far, obviously the question is will it be sustainable, personally I am happy it is part of the betting buffet. Most players just want attractive options, who knows what is on tap for next year? So we may as well enjoy it while it lasts.

I don't know how much of an affect that it would have on the meet, but they have been blessed weather wise. Not sure if they lost any turf races this past weekend, but for the most part the weather has been almost perfect.

Fair enough but how much of that increase is just because of weather? For instance I've been there twice on weekends when its rained so far so it hasn't been perfect.
