How do you feel about nyra and their 24% takeout on triples , supers, pick 3 & pick 4.

It's excessive to me, or am I being negative ? Short fields and high takeouts

Best racing in the country, by far on a day to day basis. Deal with it.

Great defense of the exorbitant 24% take out. I must be the only one who is unhappy with it

Unfortunately, it's in line with the current state of racing:

Zhukova now clicking at 70%,including 3 for 3 against the dudes.
She gets her Gr. 1............made it look easy.
And man does she love the heavy going,she just gets over it as good as any you'll ever see.
If she returns to the states and catches the heavy stuff again,they might as well not show up.
