This is too much racing, and there has been for a long time. Some tracks have to go away. Right now tracks and breeders are being subsidized to prop up this excess racing, but on any sane economic analysis, there needs to be a retrenchment.

Less racing might just mean better racing--when there was no winter racing up north, there was superior racing from a far hardier breed of animal. So, less racing could be an opportunity to improve quality all around. But given the historical record of the racing biz, they will eff this up, too.
