I would think that since NYRA currently has no idea who will be running the track or what the board of directors will consist of I don't know who would be able to cut deal with them? I'm sure BC wants to let situation settle first

My question to Monmouth would be can you profit off of the BC? It isn't as though they have the luxury of corporate backing and according to CDI they always lose money on the BC. Of course CDI has been known to stretch the truth.
