Presque Isle Downs
Saw in the Blood-Horse that this track slated to open September 1st. Might be interesting to be there that first day, although I expect the handicapping to be tough (and it's a long drive to Erie). Not sure from where the horses will come and not sure how a Tapeta surface will play, especially if the horses are coming from non-artificial surface tracks. At a minimum, they've got to be giving away some nice goodies for the premiere.

I'll be there with some. Supposedly maidens to run for 40k and up. Way better than Ellis or Turfway.

Looks like its going to be a great place. The buffet dining overlooks the track. Will be a nice place to watch the races.

I think it is going to be a booming place, and that there will be some money to be made up there. Nice purses will draw in some quality horses.
I am definately looking forward to the opening up there...

No, they have Polytrack, or one of those other synthetics. Think the Dickinson surface

Yes, the track has the Tapeta surface (Michael Dickinson's surface).
Does anyone know who will be there -- trainers, jocks, etc.? I'd like to see what the condition book looks like -- however, based upon the geographics, potential quality of racing, surrounding areas, etc., there might be a great racing opportunities. Eric
