Woodbine C/O Note: $150k added

[Travis Stone]

Thanks for the clairification.

If you assume a 22.5% blended takeout, they need to make ~$666,000 in additional handle to pay for this, or $111,000 per race in the sequence throughout the day pre-tax etc.

For a track like Woodbine, which handled $2.1 million last Sunday, this is a lot of money. Especially for a Sunday, which is not as big of a simulcast volume day as many might think.

Unless I'm missing something, this is a very bold marketing experiment. I hope it works for them.

Signed deal with TVG, this should bring more players into the pools.

I'm headed up to Toronto in August, planning on following WO going forward and make a few on track appearances while I'm up there. Anyone care to comment on the quality of racing there? Does their stock have a US track equivalent?

I'd say it's most like Arlington - maybe a little lower quality, but full fields and good turf racing.

200,000+ for two 20$ horses and four horses that paid less than 10.00 was a pretty nice payoff. Should get a few people's attention.
