Why not? None of these tracks have connections with Churchill, Magna, or NYRA. OP & LaD have racino cash for purses. Keeneland, Parx, and other tracks are possibilities, too.

NBA was challenged by ABA. NFL was challenged by AFL, WFL, & USFL. Why not challenge Triple Crown? Jersey Derby caused ripple in 1985. Is it time for paradigm shift?

your on the same track to what i was thinking. sometimes someone else just wants to challenge the system like the usfl, afl etc....theres enough rich people out there to do it.

and i was only using monmouth and delaware as examples. regardless of what tracks would be in on it, i think it could happen.
