I don't remember those discussions, Phil. Can you give me a quick recap?

This year's pool total for Pools 1 & 2 is the smallest since the first year, 1999. I'm not sure why that is, other than some platforms like YouBet not taking the wager. Is it really so much harder to bet it now than it was in 2000? Or is Churchill Downs promoting it less than they did in the early years?

I'm a little worried Churchill is going to drop it entirely.
