Seems like $25-30 Million is alot of money to invest in a meet that won't run longer than a fair meet...

They could send the Quarters over to run at Pamona while the TB's are at Los Al. Orange County will be a great place for a true TB meet , so close to everything , Disney , Knotts and the beach is just a few miles away and its a helluva alot nicer neighborhood than Hollywood.

hollypark died the day churchill bought them. they never invested in the facility the way magna did at santa anita.

it's not just the neighborhood. holly has a great location 15 minutes from the airport and 30 minutes from the westside.

it wasn't always the hole it is now. that took years of bad management.
