One has higher purses, higher expenses to keep a horse there and tougher competition ... the other has lower purses, lower expenses to keep a horse there and softer competition.

its a no brainer. F Lakes has lower purses and easier competition. Toga and Bel has tougher competition, prestige in winning at Toga and higher purses.
But I think you knew this already, so why ask

Since I live generally equidistant from all the NY tracks I'm leaning in the direction of cost effectiveness .

Base at Flakes and ship to NYRA if you feel you have the proper quality. I'd let the quality of the stock dictate as most Flakes horses cannot compete at NYRA tracks. With modest stock, the Lakes is better. Why pay big bucks to get beat up? If you get ahold of a good horse, you can always ship in as Charlton Baker and Mike Lecesse do.

You could always base the horse at PID even if it's a NY bred.
It will cost you no more than Finger Lakes. The MSW purse is way more, and though you'll be facing opens ... most of the horses who won the 2yo MSW races here last meet would have got killed even in sub-par NY bred MSW races at NYRA. You also get to train on a brand new synthetic track that doesn't get chewed up in the mornings .. because there aren't many stalls on the grounds to fill with horses.

You could also train on Golden Missile's balls.
