I've always felt safe, too, but I guess I really do feel safe at any track because it's where I want to be.

Aqueduct is A LOT nicer than Suffolk IMO.

See I think that is the key...the track is where you want to be to begin with. I'm interested in seeing how they plan to draw the person who isn't following racing day to day. From the little I've read of their proposals I don't see any of my non-racing friends calling me up and asking me if I'd take them to the track.

I've only gone to Suffolk on MassCap day which had perfect weather and a big crowd that probably wouldn't have been there had Funny Cide not...so I might be a little forgiving of Suffolk.
