Also, the prices will of course be increased for Travers weekend.
NYRA, loyal as always!!

I expected the ridiculous boxes they put in at Gulfstream. This isn't something though that I would think they would do at Saratoga. If they did this to my dad's Giants tickets he would burn down the stadium.

It is $45,000 a day. So it works out to over $1,000,000 a summer. That is an extra $1,000,000 for the NYRA board to spend on dinners and entertainment.
