Racetracks are a business and, yes, they are out to make money - that's what businesses do. One does not operate a business to lose money. And if racetracks cease operation, where are "the horsemen" going to run their horses? When "the horsemen" run their horses at racetracks, they operate their business in attempt to make money; apparently, plenty of "horsemen" don't make money at Texas racetracks and have gone off elsewhere.<br /><br />ANONYMOUS - $4,000,000??? What the heck are you talking about?!?

How many trainers and owners will be willing to make three or more moves for a grand total 24 days of racing at any one location. And as far as the Knight Sky comment is concerned- The horsemen are not being listened to by anyone- only the track owners will get anything out of this- 12 months of simulcast income-that is the whole reason for this farce of a racing schedule. Please-make sure you know whom you are talking about when you say "the horsemen"!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20800109.post-45745740484394197572010-09-15T15:17:27.659-05:002010-09-15T15:17:27.659-05:00A: Life Support
