On a day when a returning HOY raced at Belmont against two BCT winners, Monmouth Park had a larger attendance than Belmont? Does NY really think that slots at Belmont aren't necessary or that a new person should head the marketing operation?

Horse Racing is easily the most poorly marketed sport in america. ESPN News? Pathetic.

LS with its so called minor league racing had just short of 13k in attendance. With attendance such a minor factor. Iwonder how the track has a chance in hell to florish with the severly restricted simo outlets.Im sure the State needs to do its part by legalizing account waggering, Nodoubt that SOcal ,NY, Fla,and La tracks get a lot of action from the LS simocast pavilion, Wondering how much action the various tracks get at LS.
