No, and personally it is really a retarded idea. Betting a race at Bum**** Downs isn't going to get Churchill/Magna attention.

NOT BETTING will get their attention, but not one player, including myself, would do that

I meant not betting their tracks.

Well with things like Derby Barbie, the Over/Under, and Matrix wager, how could you avoid betting on Churchill? All of the elements are there.

Oh, I thought you meant not betting AT ALL... I'd hate to have to stop betting on any track at any time that I wanted to...




.....but I don't have a gambling problem

looks like the handle from the 5th race was about 35K, in the 6th race it went up to about 55k and the 7th race it went down to 25k or so. these arent exact numbers, just me adding up the chart totals. but apparently there was a noticeable difference.
