You have to clean and have ready all the dorms, bathrooms, stables, etc.
How about all the parimutuel equipment? That all has to be shipped up and tested in a matter of hours.
What about food and bev?
There are many more logistical issues, these are just a few off the top of my head.

My brother is a teller for NYRA and has been shipped in for BC Day at Belmont, Arlington, Churchill and Gulfstreaam and KY Derby Day. The BC committee sends them in from other tracks is the need is there.
