i hear you, and agree. its seems to be dying at hawthorne. i've even noticed the Arlington meet declining since I moved over here 5 years ago. There wasn't much up from KY last year like in comparison to five years ago. the poly might help reverse that trend.

That doesn't mean the quality is awful. 10 claimers at Finger Lakes may be bettable, it doesn't make it good racing. And the takeout is an absurd 18.5% there. No go.

I believe other than the 1% bump in NY, this is up to date.
