"Despite the challenges, Dragone believes Maryland racing still has a lot to offer.
“Obviously, every day you have the Preakness in the back of your mind because it’s such a big event,” he said of the middle jewel of the Triple Crown. “ And we are still running races here year-round. We are going to get the message out that there are still some great opportunities here.” "
Ahhhhemmm - Mr. Dragone - you might want to check the racing calendar in Maryland before you make stupid comments. MD hasn't raced year-round since Colonial Downs opened years ago. MD racing stops from mid- June until mid-Aug.
Nice start..... |
10 months is pretty much year round, they take a few weeks off at mountaineer as well, does that mean they arent year round? you really gonna jump a guy for that?
