Would you know how Santa Anita Handle is working out?

I have not followed it for the meet, but they had a good weekend. Saturday handle was down about 200k, but the per-race was up (they ran 10 races in 2013). Sunday handle was up about 10%.

One of the odd things about the weekend was that their export was higher Sunday than Saturday. That rarely happens at a major track and could be nothing more than a coincidence.

When I was following earlier in the meet the handle was consistently down on a per race basis that didn't have a Daily Double. I guess they have to stick to that for the remainder of the meet? IMHO just a horrible idea.

I never understood the reasoning of why SA would do this. Is it to drive the double players to pick threes?? Honestly, I am confused....
