Dear Frank Stronach

[jms62]

Today is a light day as far as Graded stakes go. I am sure you understand that Graded stakes races are the biggest handle races at your tracks. How in Gods name could you run 2 graded stakes races on top of each other at tracks that you own? Do you think you maximized handle on these 2 races? Who do you hire that makes these decisions? Do they have any knowledge whatsoever in the business that they are managing or are they simply an empty suit with an advanced degree from a prestigious school with a sense of entitlement that won't stagger post times by 5 minutes because it is a sign of weakness? Bottom line Frank you lose handle and we whom are your customers who look forward to watching and betting these Graded stakes races lose. I am sure you can toss a dart on this web site and get a person more common horse racing business sense than those making these decsions.

I agree. If they are going to run them at the same time, at least offer a Daily Double bet on those two races. Instant action

Totally agree. Even TVG was confused. They didn't know whether to show a double box split screen, or just show one track and tape delay the other.

TVG is a huge offender of this as well. They seem to think their account holders enjoy bad comedy and we're looking to fantasize about women instead of actually betting horses.

It's just a small example of why America is doomed. These are the smart people, folks.
