I think we’ve been fortunate to have racing the last few days but I’m not sure how much longer we will have it. Again, pure speculation on my part but if that’s the case the decision makes even more sense.

I don’t think for one second this decision was made on a whim. Just like the decision to cancel Keeneland wasn’t an easy decision. I think people are playing the cards they have been dealt the best way they can.

Reading the material available this evening, the decision was made related to the local State Fair's ending and the start of the Notre Dame football season. Not once did I see a word from Churchill that the decision making was about the racing season.
