Del Mar's Future

[hi_im_god]

the initial estimate for a sale of the del mar fairgrounds is $350,000,000 to the state.

one...this is just a proposal by the governor and it would take action by the legislature to put a "for sale" sign on any of the assets proposed, including del mar. opposition in the legislature is already pointing out selling in a down real estate market might not be the smartest way out of budget issues.

and even if a sale should be completed, i wouldn't jump to the conclusion that it means the end of racing. why wouldn't the new owner want a paying tenant?
