Franchise Delay Hangs Over Trainers

[Linny]

Agreed Cannon. The problem was that the "administration" of the NYTHA backed and in fact became a part of Empire, but the rank and file generally did not. You are right in that the trainers just want a safe, decent environment in which they may make a living. They want what horsemen want, good purses, good maintainence and to be able to fill a good condition book. There were many less powerful trainers with no huge owners who had opinions but dared not give them voice. Who could blame them. If they came out as anti-NYRA, they could be treated pretty badly now and in the future if NYRA gets renewed.
