NYRA continues to do what they have done for years, offer the absolute best product at the cheapest cost to customers. 3 dollars to get into the track up here. No owners have ever been stiffed on purses, and they were among the first to institute a race day detention barn. And you are dead wrong if you think horseman would always come heer anyway without those great purses and condition books.
Gulfstream used to be an elite place, this past year they must have broken the record for most cheap claiming races in one meet, CD was a nose behind with their last meet. They keep running garbage racing except for 4-5 days a meet, at both places.
NYRA is a wonderful place if you are a fan or an owner or trainer. Lemme know when CD or Gulf or anyplace does over 15 million in handle on a Wednesday, LOL!!!

Oh and you mention costs to get into the track. Well Churchill charges $2 and $1 for seniors. A Twin Spiral person gets in for free. There is plenty of free parking at Churchill as well. I can't remember what Keeneland charges--I believe it is $2. So the $3 to get into Saratoga is not that big of a deal.

Arlington charges 5 bucks with a twin spires card and 6 bucks without
Now that's a ripoff for what you get.

Heck on next Sunday at Saratoga (T-shirt day) I'll pay several times to get into the track to fulfill T-shirt orders from boys left in Chicago.

I agree with that Dellinger 100%. I cant see paying that much to get into any track. What makes me mad about Churchill is that they charge you when they arent racing live.
