Default T-U: DelNorth has Aqueduct VLT bid edge..

Odato in yesterday's Times-Union:

Word among gaming representatives is that Gov. David Paterson is leaning sharply toward granting the Aqueduct VLT rights to a group led by Delaware North of Buffalo, which bid more than $370 million. An upcoming speech by the governor in Buffalo could reveal his plans for the Queens track.

Delaware North would be a great partner in the project and is someone NYRA can work well with... Another positive as momentum continues to steadily build around all things racing in NY..

Also includes encouraging update on movement towards comprehensive approach on backstretch condition project..
