Stop you can give outthe notice and you can give out the notice.. NYRA is being ridiculous they should be saying.."we understand the State is in intense budget talks and we respect that the State has major issues, yet we will need them to honor their commitment to fund NYRA especially enlue of the OTB crisis which has drained 18 million in revenue from NYRA. NYRA will require the State to honor their commitment and finance NYRA until VLT's at Aqueduct are operational" Instead we got "hi the Belmont stakes is June 5th deposit money immediately to play the big pik 4's and 6 and we will be out of business on the 6th have a nice day."
