Let's say Ellis Park, Turfway Prk, Mountaineer, Suffolk, Thistle/Beulah/River, Penn National and Prarie Meadows all close tomorrow. All are either on shaky ground or are operated by groups that probably wouldnt mind axing racing. Ok so please tell me how this makes racing better?

Better the next day or better in 5 years? In 5 years it would be 1000 times better.
