We'll see, but the whole formation of the THG, in response to the formation of TrackNet, was progressive in a way as it brought 5 states' worth (PA, OH, KY, FL, TX) of horsemen together in a single voice. Should provide for more direct communication and clearer answers among all parties involved...

What's your opinon here Steve? I know the tracks have been pushing that they doubled the royalty to horsemen in the last year, but that stat could be meaningless based on what the numbers really are. From a PR standpoint, it's a brutal stand by the horsemen..Do they have a leg to stand on?
