Wake up!!
Maybe Genting is willing to refurbish Belmont and address winterizing the surface at there expense. Maybe Genting is willing to redo the training track with poly so that when its 3 degrees horses can train? Maybe this isnt the worst idea in the world. Look if Genting is willing to pay for the transformation of Belmont how could that be bad for NYRA? Aqueduct is a great surface but I remember reading the thoughts of John Nerud and he was all in favor of the shift to Belmont permanently. It could work!
