This isn't a new thing as you know. The purse/claiming price ratio has been a problem for a decade, but it is mostly at places where nobody notices outside of us diehards. It was never going to fly in New York when horses started breaking down.
I hear ya.

But hey, they're about to have legal prostitution over by Fort Erie. http://www.goerieblogs.com/news/writ...on-in-ontario/

We already have slots, table games, even Pai-Gow at Presque Isle Downs ... how long until prostitution becomes the new slots?
