Fair point... maybe that's a good thing though in some cases?

I agree with the NJ-bred answer. Owning an NJB is more profitable than selling heroin, and only half as degrading.

I went to two proms at Garden State in my day.

Although NJ does not offere year round racing, what they have in fact done is extend the time frame -- both before and after any NJ meet -- in order to collect the NJ Bred bonus money.

Not saying I know but I thouvht Delta Downs with the money from slots were the biggest purse improvement.

I hope I never bet Evageline Downs again for the rest of my life.

Actually AE, if you can sift through all the sludge in those Evangeline claiming races, you can make huge $$$$ there.

let me clarify. I had two 20-1 shots come in 1 - 2 over the favorite. The screen goes to odds for like 10 minutes and the next thing you know they are putting the favorite that clearly no mistake about it ran 3rd. The winner was a length ahead and the place horse was a head in front of the favorite. They cut to the winner's circle. Everyone is laughing like something was funny. I sat there with my friend and waited to see a photo. After a replay of the race that clearly showed my horses in front of the favorite they finally posted the photo. it was very quick but the favorite ran third in the photo as well.

I wrote to Evageline Downs and asked what was going on. Their reply was blank with a worm virus attached. I wrote Equibase and asked them about the order of finish and all I got was that it was correct. One of them lies and the other one swears to it.?

I saved the ticket for long time as a reminder - the ink faded over time but my memory is clear.

I will NEVER put my money on a Vaseline Downs race again.

That sounds as shady as male babysitters...

I've always wondered if there are actual patrons at Evageline...it seems like the most undesirable spot on dark nights...just seems like a night track open for the benefits of the true degenerates. Which is not to be confused with Los Alamitos, which seems to only run so that TVG can say they have ONE exclusive track now a days
