Remind me again how well racing is doing in KY?

Much better than CA.

You have one track in N Ca where a 6 horse field is huge
You have one track in S Ca that is on the clock
You have a track that is owned by a guy that has blown close to a billion dollars with his mismanagement of racetracks
you have Del Mar

purses at hollywood casino at penn national are higher than those at hollywood park.

the best racing organization is track-less

there is virtually zero chance that help is coming from sacramento




Ky has Kee which is doing fine
CD just raised purses 10% and has a dirt track
TP and ellis are crap but have always been pretty crappy

Despite all the political bs at least there are forces that may get the game some help in the near future.

In no way is KY doing great but how could you think they are in worse shape than CA?

I guess I fail to see how KY was a better choice than NY considering CD has it this year. It should never be in the same place back to back.

I agree with you. If given the choice between CD and SA with Pro-Ride I'll take what we're getting. I'm sure you feel the same way.

I guess I missed the part about NY? I simply pointed out that something that a few years ago was a given (racing on dirt) is now cause for celebration. I would love to see the BC back in NY.

I would love to see the BC abolished. They recently reorganized and let go many long-time staffers. I guess those were the people who were thought to have done enough?
