I don't think a big part of the crowd in the Man O War room, etc, see a live race outside of the monitors in winter. The races could be run on Mars and they would probably wouldn't notice much difference if the product and surface were consistent. A top notch NYRA race book with subway access as part of a casino complex could actually be pretty nice and generate handle.
The Belmont logistics, I imagine would be quite an undertaking...

I think Pat hit the nail on the head here. NYRA should be able to operate some sort top class race book, somewhere in the venue. It would be criminal to have a casino at Aqueduct and not have any sort of outlet where gamblers could wager on horses.
