Blackthroatedwind, it is true that I have had a business relationship with Capital OTB from time to time, including takling about racing in Dubai. However, I was not trying to "take shots at NYRA". The "slippery slope" was not being taken by me as my reply to this form was as a FAN with some basic information that I felt would help everyone handicap, and enjoy racing that might seem different than what they are used to.
I believe in International Racing ,and that it's presentation is vital to the future, and promotion of the sport. I "wondered" in this form to all DT'ers why NYRA with it's wagering options (simulcasting, phone, and internet) were not offering this especially ontrack. As most of us know Vineyard Haven won two G1's in NY last year. I "wondered" in general why the Dubai races were not offered at Aqueduct (NYRA), and with a horse like Vineyard Haven in the entries the "I wonder why that is?" thought came to mind to ask all.
As a horseracing fan I don't care what is going on between OTB's and NYRA, I only like to watch good horses run. I mean what else are you going to do on a Thursday morning.
So, who does everyone like in the 6th anyway?
