Notice the consistent drop in purses illustrated in the chart included in the Blood Horse article that GBBob linked. The drop coincides with the opening of casino gambling in Indiana. 3 boats within 45 min. of Turfway Park. It's a double whammy for TP. IF THE SUN IS WARM AND THE BEER IS COLD (Kee and CD - April thru Nov. ) people may choose the Track to be outside and enjoy the weather. The guts of Turfways meet comes in the dead of winter when people don't care to be outside. It ain't hard. On site handle down....purses down !!! KY better wake up before it's too late.
