For sure Honu . Racing is so disjointed and dysfunctional . It's a disgrace it's taking so slow to clean up the sport as a whole . Shapiro lead the way in Cali and the rest of the states don't seem interested .

I think it's troubling the way he departed . I'm not optimistic that Cali racing will move forward .

I dont know how he can stepdown without being beheaded for the awful job hes done. Mandating crappy surfaces, selling a batch of ****, then walking away when the surface is about to get bad again. Word on the street is the track flooded again yesterday morning due to a heavy rain. He stepped down just in time, I dont blame him. Hes a coward, and a buffoon.

Cal racing has was bad anyhow, he just gave the final death blow

Maybe that Ben Warren fella will be the new head honcho out there . He seems to be pretty representative of the reactionary right wing of the horse racing industry .
