While the quality of the River is not great, I've always enjoyed the atmosphere.

I agree 100 % Gary. It's a beautiful little track on the banks of the Ohio River for those who have never been there. Been going there since I was a kid with my Dad starting in the 60's. It's a piece of Cincinnati history. With a steady rise in all the surrounding states getting slots, purses have plummented. No incentive there to buy or Breed Ohio breds. Racino issue failed after the Firm who was hired to promote the on track slots did a horrible job. If RD goes down it will take many nearby family owned businesses with it. With a Racino and increased purses, IMO it could be a jewel.
