I'm putting this out for Sumitas as he seems interested in this.
My view, it should be very interesting.

Well the case in NJ is a little different from NY. New Jersey racing will be fine. However, the purses may suffer just a tad. But once all the pickering is settled by the politicians, then racing in NJ will be just fine.

Steibrenner would be interesting. I wouldnt mind him at all. The man knows how to run a sports business. However, he is old so I dont know how much longer he will be around

Yes, but it is a holiday weekend and no one wants to have to close because someone else can't get along and agree on a budget.

If I were to lay odds, Churchill Downs would be 9-5 in this spot........

The N'Yawk pols and the Joisey pols continue their neck-and-neck battle to see who is the more corrupt.

They're thoroughly evil in every way ... and a pox on all of them.
