I know Steve has made the point that this is the only weapon the horsemen have, but it still seems to be similar to "They're not feeding you enough? Go on a hunger strike."

Can't be good for any racing venue to block simulcasting when overall demand is down. The market forces, as cruel as they are, are inescapable in the end.

I hope racing can survive without Suffolk Downs. Close the place already enough crap.
