Like you I live near MP, like you I love it.. There arent horses around if the purses aren't going to be very high because NYRA is going to be vlt fueled and Parx/Penn as well. So if MP doesnt have that going for it why should they be opened? Unfortunately racing in many a state are sucking on the teets of slots and when that teet runs dry its over! Then what?
