i hear your arguement , but , the rooney must have a grand plan for all of it , they are smart business people and have been for a long time

that being said , the majority of the yonkers slots players are coming from the bronx and westchester...i don't think that there is a high % of the people coming in from LI , queens, brooklyn or manhattan

i think that NYRA can usr the big a or belmont and draw from people in queens ctny , king's ctny and nassau ctny without taking people away from yonkers

to be be fair on your points a lot of waht you say is correct , a lot of the other venues across the country simply don't have 10mm potential customers within 40 miles that yonkers and nyra have

a case in point , last oct i was at a wedding up in monticello , we went to the track the night before and it was a semi -ghost town , now granted the horses were not runnig that night , but , it was one of the most empty casinos i have ever been in .....that part of NY doesn't have 10mm people within 40 miles an it showed
