Churchill loses $13.9-million in first quarter (http://www.thoroughbredtimes.com/todaysnews/newsview.asp?recno=54637&subsec=1)
Revenue for Churchill Downs Inc. was up 49.1% for the first quarter of 2005, but the company reported a net loss of $13.9-million, or $1.08 per share, due to rising expenses. Thoroughbred Times (http://www.thoroughbredtimes.com/todaysnews/newsview.asp?recno=54637&subsec=1)
This can't be good....
And speaking of NYRA, it's been REAL quiet on the controversy front. Isn't it about time 'ol Eliot Spitzer finds some more trumped up charges so that he can get some more bad press brewing about NYRA? Maybe a backstretch raid by INS? Something? It's been too long Eliot! Too long!
Maybe the financial mess at Magna, and now at Churchill, has made them realize NYRA might have a shot at retaining the franchise after all? Who knows....
And say, whatever did happen with that all important JOCKEY WEIGHT investigation/raid that they conducted last winter? How come we haven't heard BOO from the DA's office about that major sting operation?
