Preakness has a huge infield for the yahoos Belmont doesn't you kind of have to keep perspective in place. The infield plays a major roll in quelling the casual fans appetite for partying without subjecting the more ardent horse players to their brand of entertainment.

No worries... I don't give slack to a new hire who had the ability to query about past failures and make changes. We probably will be in the same situation x Years from now when we have a "New Hire" in place for the next Triple Crown shot.

So no one that was there 21 days ago gave a **** about fan experience or had the means to explore past failings? Just admit that I made a valid point and we can drop this. NYRA gets a 10 out of 10 for the racing and a 2 out of 10 for fan experience. Hopefully we get a shot at this next year while the "Chief Experience Officer" is in place. The fact that they need this position boggles my mind. I am sure it is a relatively high paid position for a job that should be the number one priority for any business dealing with the public.

And you know that representatives from the Breeders Cup were in attendance as they usually are! These people are very keen to attendance figures, customer service, concessions and transportation issues.

I would be very surprised if after yesterday what they witnessed in person and have read regarding the post race problems of the fans that we ever see a Breeders Cup in Belmonts future.
