10 years later and no appreciable increase in daily handle for Saratoga and there is no concern and we can spin this anyway we want? All I said in the initial post was that it was a disappointment. I have no problem with NYRA and love Saratoga. But again it is nothing but defensive reactions regarding what is a weakish number. Just say that.

Considering that overall handle numbers industrywide have dropped significantly in 10 years isn't an expectation that Saratoga's numbers should have increased odd?
