Default Suffolk HBPA block simulcasts (UPDATE: Dispute resolution near)

Story here: http://www.drf.com/news/suffolk-hors...-purse-dispute

I know Steve has made the point that this is the only weapon the horsemen have, but it still seems to be similar to "They're not feeding you enough? Go on a hunger strike."

Can't be good for any racing venue to block simulcasting when overall demand is down. The market forces, as cruel as they are, are inescapable in the end.
