Why limit it to Inglewood?

[dellinger63]

is there an 'Opposite George' organization to get rid of Hollywood and the 2 CA Senators? Heck I'll throw in a Rep Gov and Santa Anita as well. Long Live Del Mar tho

Lotta good an organized group did for Bay Meadows... these people don't want to own race tracks, they want to own LAND that can be sold at a profit. Bay Meadows is nothing but a pile of scrap at this point and if they tear down Hollywood Park, that's all it will be too.

I'm guessing Hollywood has a few more years left, unless the track is losing money it's still more profitable than scrap metal that's only worth a dollar a pound... once the economy turns Hollywood will be gone, too.

I worry about California racing in the years to come...

if hollywood park closes, which track will fill thier racing dates?

I had heard that Los Al was going to be rebuilt with a one mile course with turf
or maybe fairplex.

no one's committing money to building anything.

check in after the sequel to whatever this summer's movie blockbuster is and someone might have an intelligent opinion.

not that it helps but i'm sure at this point they wish they had kept the track open in san mateo.

which is why i'm not at all worried about losing the unpainted rusting grandeur that is hollypark in the next few years.

hollypark will be at risk after the build starts in your neighborhood.
