I thought it would bother me last year, but it didn't in the least. I played Churchill and Calder like I normally do and watched and enjoyed the BC races with nothing on the line.

It is not a protest by any means, just money management.

Exactly and well said. I am not protesting but rather just choosing to spend in other ways. Run it where you want and let the spending public decide. I'll have a hard time dealing with The Classic if Gio goes off close to ML odds, but hey its racing.

Gosh what a beautiful backdrop at Santa Anita, really is. If I had the chance and the funds to go I would. But given my money spot today, I can't. In fact I would be prone to go and wager less and just take in the atmosphere, like when I went to Saratoga. I gambled less at Saratoga then I would have at one of my old home tracks because I was so happy just taking in the atmosphere.
