AQU to Inner for 3 Days

I don't know how the situation will change with slot machines but they need to do something. This is really not acceptable for NY racing.

Well the weather hasn't been working in their favor either.

Weather should not be an issue. They are off a track for days in advance. There is something wrong with track. It obviously was not well taken care of. I heard that this is not a 3 day thing. There is a chance they won't go back to the main track at all this year.

the track is waterlogged--having an inner inside the main track would no doubt make drainage of the main track an issue.

and woodbine is already having problems with their poly, it's not holding up to the cold weather. so there would hopefully be no rush to put it at ny, which hasn't got the funds right now with their situation...

I wonder, is it just on the internet you make irresponsible statements like this? " It obviously was not well taken care of "? So, your an expert on track maintenance as well. Good to know.

I am an expert on knowing they didn't take care of the turf at belmont, and blamed a lack of money for the reason, and I am an expert on knowing that rain shouldn't cause a problem with a track for days.

They will not get back to the main track by next weeks races. When Discreet Cat and Nobiz don't show up, you will look like a fool. I know you or Oracle or one of you guys used to work for NYRA. Stop defending them. In my opinion horses are dying because they are too cheap to take care of their tracks.

Announced this morning that Discreet Cat is still a go, inner or outer track, they don't care.

Do you have a link for that story? I heard they won't run him if they don't like the track. I know Barclay Tagg has already said he won't run his 2yr old if he doesn't like the track.

You actually said Nobizlikeshowbiz isn't running. This " he may not run " garbage means nothing. Every horse entered may not run.

What trainer does run a horse, especially an extremely valuable horse, on a track " he doesn't like "? Certainly not one as exceptional as the great Barclay Tagg.

You are a self-professed expert on many things...most of which have proven to be inaccurate over time. You are also part of a group of posters that have only come to this site to cause trouble and further a variety of personal agendas.

The simple fact is you run your mouth, so to speak, on the internet and have established zero credibility.

You are a gambler. Gamblers have zero credibility. I love you guys when you are wrong you start coming up with personal things.

I have quite a few dollars invested in the business. Finally the horseman are starting to win out over the gamblers. Once NYRA is gone everyone will be happy, but most importantly the horses.
