It seems evident that our interests weren't even really disregarded....they simply never even considered them. And THAT is not right.

Plus, since they are often hasty in taking races off the grass, their decisions are at least open to debate. The basic problem is that little done by Gulfstream management reflects any interest in the concerns of bettors.
This could be a permanent thread:
(insert name of track ) Screws the bettors

It seems that tracks rarely have a management team that recognizes that it is the bettors that fund this game. As slots continue to grow will the horseplayer be totally forgotten?
