Due to a power outtage, Emerald Downs has been cancelled for today. Not even their emergency power was operational.

rumor mill a few years back said Crockett was considering a turf course. Hope not, but what have you heard if anything?

I thought I heard that he might be trying to put one in British Columbia. What have you heard about that?
Emerald Downs really isn't configured for a turf course. I think the turns would be way too tight. I'm surprised they don't add some 1/4 racing to the early part of the card. That would make more sense.

There was some talk at oone point of moving the B.C. racing, but the support form the governmnet was not there and there were complaints about environemental impact as it was to be in Port Coquitlam near a swampy area. The racing in B.C. is in trouble unless they can get the slots (that were voted in) started.
