NYRA has edge in bidding

YOu wanna know the bottom line? Churchill Downs, and Gulfstream, etc, their purses SUCK as does the quality of racing. This is the opinion of every major trainer I have engaged on the subject up here. They run a few big Saturday's with 5 or 6 stakes races to try and fool everyone into thinking that they are putting on a great show. Meanwhile the weekday cards are embarassing. And trainers search futilely for allowance races which they won't write so they can split a division of 8 claimers.
Bottom line Euro is that owners and trainers want good day in and day out purses and racing. Nothing more or less. NYRA has provided that for decades. YOu wanna compare that garbage that CD runs to NYRA? Are you kidding me? CD is a total disgrace. Card after card of the cheapest claiming mules alive. YOu wanna argue that? You wanna go head to head on the numbers? Lets go buddy boy, name the bet. I can show you the average CD purse structure as compared to NYRA's. WHile you are at it, NYRA clobbers any Magna track's purses and quality as well. You care to make a wager on that? Do you really believe the tales you tell? If you do, name the bet.
