Default Gulfstream Park

Is now running their races on time. Good to see them making it a little easier on bettors. They have like 10 other things to fix, but still.

Not sure I’ve ever seen worse cards day in and day out at Gulfstream.

Embarrassing really.

BUT, compared to NY, you get racing FIVE days per week versus 4. You get 10 races a day versus 9 or 8. You get turf racing. You don't get racing days canceled for weather.

Let's see, we have had ten race cards most days since coming to Aqueduct. We had turf racing through last Friday. We cancelled once. The cards in NY have been full of big fields and plenty of opportunities. Surely you could have found a better comparison.

The reality is, the racing at Gulfstream has been unappealing. Perhaps it will improve, but there is a reason Aqueduct has "outhandled" them the majority of days since the "Championship Meet" began.

They should cut back to 4 days a week if this is what they are going to give bettors.

More crap races isn’t a plus.

Blame the breeding industry. They are the ones that are breeding the crap horses, yes?
