I use to watch Churchill races on TVG and I saced the charts. While I didn't follow the spring meet a little bit. Since they decided to go on their own with HRTV, I bet Churchill once in a while last year. Then I realized I was sretching myself too thin cappin races from that track. I decided to focus more on my home track and I don't miss Churchill a single bit.

I don't think O'm alone in shifting my wagering dollars. My point is within the last year, Robert Evans has turned Churchill Downs into an irrelevant racing track in terms of out of state simulcasting wagering.

He's never been the same since Ali MacGraw left him for Steve McQueen. Can't blame him. THAT was a tough beat.

Did that happen before or after the Godfather was made?

McQueen was the King of Cool or something like that. The Cinncinati Kid was a good movie. The car chase through SF was classic.
