Pletcher going to California

[Round Pen]

Oracle I have a question for you Seriously now (and you may not be doing this on purpose) but why does it seem every post you make that you are talking down to everyone. No reason to call Independent George, boy George.

Bogeydaman responded to your post with some very good points but yet no response why not.

Obviously he has heard some of the same things I have.

And Surely your smart enough to know that GP could not announce any purse inceases yet. That will have to be decided after slots start and see how much revenue is actually generated.

Have a Nice Day

I wouldn't expect anything enormous this year. And what they generally do is announce a percentage increase. This won't help raise the racing quality much since condition books are written well in advance and I don't think bumping the purses on the endless array of claimers and maiden claimers is gonna thrill anyone.
Bottom line is that until they start writing better condition books it doesnt matter.
But yeah, maybe in 2008 or more likely 2009 things will turn around. Won't be this year though.
