![]() With all the talk of "the live game is dead", I was thinking today at Belmont how busy it seemed. Since the 4th is a day where people can actually ATTEND the races, instead of having work and other obligations from 1-5 PM, here's the reported figures for today at major tracks:
Belmont 8,415 (seemed a lot more than that, all the front parking lots were full by the 4th race when I got there) Churchill 12,398 Ellis (opening day) 7,088 Hollywood [not available] Lone Star 20,000 Monmouth 15,791 Pretty impressive.

Phil, it's great to see FL get that many people there to watch the race. They showed a picture of the grandstand it was packed. |

Calder: 6325 I watched Belmont on simulcast from CRC. They had a pan shot of the outside clubhouse right before the Tom Fool, there was about 6 people there. The grandstand looked like about 20.. Sad. Maybe it was a hot day and the rest were inside, but still sad. |

![]() Canterbury had almost 11,000 there for the 4th. That's big by their standards. They usually get that attendance figure for Debry Day (their opening day as well), the 4th, and Claiming Crown Day. They do their fireworks display on the 3rd instead of the 4th, but I'm unsure of the attendance for that.
CBY will miss not having the Claiming Crown this year.
