Yonkers gets a lot of the Atlantic City crowd from the Bronx who now only have to journey about 15 minutes rather than 2 hrs. The city has tons of people in Queens and Brooklyn who would head to play the slots at the Big A rather than venture down to AC.

Purse sizes by default would have to increase , it would create more jobs , there would be multiple dining establishments ....think of all the poeple who may take a 2nd look or an inital look at the horse racing game , they could even install lights and run on Friday / Sat nights at the Big A during the winter

You have been ok recently, but now I know you have absolutely LOST IT...

At Night, in the middle of winter, in New York?....

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I can feel that pleasant breeze that comes off Jamaica Bay in Febuary by just thinking about it. Oh wait it will be even better, with a 7 o'clock post.

Was just thinking the same thing. The horses don't care, but the jockeys would.
