Update
Looks like a no go for 2014 and they are beginning to focus on 2015. Hopefully the VRC will hold firm on the July 1st deadline for Colonial to sign a 2015 agreement.

Dear Mr. Jacobs,
Regarding your plans for an abbreviated "Turf Boutique" meet with large purses at Colonial Downs...Kentucky Downs beat you to it. Thanks for nothing in 2014! Can't believe that 6 weeks of 5 day/9 race cards is impossible.

New low from Jeff Jacobs who will now hold players and all others hostage since horsemen have backing of legislature for alternative racing venues.

rackenfrasser
how did these guys go from 12 hoss fields every race ..even a couple of MSW dirt races to end the card, 5 days a week to this ? what a cash producer that was. closers first 3 weeks then all the speed hosses that got bombed against the bias the next 3 weeks.
