Is it more the crowd turnout that they worry about? OTB's and at home wagering would still be sprightly, though, especially on New Years Eve

Thank you, Steve. I am an animal lover myself (though do not take that too literally in this current political climate). However, someone above suggested the horses and jockeys would be out there training regardless

Obviously he likes non fiction, as opposed to fictional bets like yesterday’s $1535 dollar mythical action.
