How about what happens if Santa Anita doesn't want to deal with Oak Tree?

Santa Anita has no interest in leasing to Oak Tree. This was all laid out and plain to see last summer. I'll hopefully get George Haines on tomorrow with Hammerle for comment.

Frank is an azzhole........ Oak Tree donates money and funds a large portion of backside programs including the medical and dental trailer on the backside for the workers. Without Oak Tree these programs will not have the funds to keep operating.........Frank sucks plain and simple, he no more cares about the backside than the man on the moon. The conditions on the backside are just unreal. The people who live there still live in rat infested rooms and bathrooms from the 1940's, the barns are so old and low that it is unsafe to ride a horse under the shedrow. The barns look like crap unless a trainer pays someone to paint it and foux fix it. Franks sucks donkey ballzzzzzzzzzzz. It would'nt be so bad if he choked on his own Austrian tongue.

How were conditions on the backside prior to Stronach's purchase of the track?

The same but somehow he seemed to fix the track apron for the fans and built Front Runner lounge to serve the public and has said more than once he would fix up the backside.
Oak Tree at least puts forth an effort to make lives of backside workers better, what has he done??????
Think about S.A. as being the great race place and then come take a tour of the barn area and I double dog dare you to go for a pee in one the bathrooms on the backside, I bet your pecker wouldnt leave your pants.
