Thanks...Everyone on this board wants racing to succeed. Me being gone means less handle, not more. Racing will always be here, but the initial question is a good one....For one thing there are fewer horses being born which down the line will have a major effect.

If the intial question was good, why did you not respond like this then? If so, I would have had nothing to say.

Fair enough.

Less racing. Less tracks. Less purses...My guess just on general economic basis+horse decrease.

I like what Monmouth did, I know there is a lot to it and its not easy to just change, but I think thats the only way for NY. Look at the holiday card yesterday, it was HORRIBLE. 3, MAYBE 4 DAYS A WEEK MAX, is the way to go.

Yes and I wholeheartedly supported Monmouth....but those on this board who contend that they could only do it due to casino help were 100% correct. That is going away. And fast.
