All time low for New York racing
 
40 years ago there were at least 9 races every day 6 days a week. as of this week, the big A is running 3 days a week with short fields with a great breeding program that didn't exist 40 years ago. its sad.

Fri-Sat-Sun now?
About time.... but why wait until March?
Racing there has sucked all winter.

Sat-Sun might be a good idea to try. :rolleyes:

i remember when the racing in the winter was better than Gulfstream. now Maryland is better in the winter.

I don't follow any tracks north of Oaklawn in the winter. Shut it down already!

NYRA has been going to a 3 day week in March for a few years now...this is nothing new.

At least my workload of watching replays and making bias notes is going down.

I wouldn’t bet Aqueduct with your $.

PaceAdvantage 02-28-2018 09:33 PM

I'd bet any race anywhere as long as I thought it was worthwhile...

Why would anyone cross a track off the list? A race is a race dude...

Look at Mountaineer:lol:

Really?
Sounds odd, but I have not followed NYRA for years.
More racing in Jan-Feb than in March when the spring is around the corner seems backwards.

All I can tell you is that it is so. Somebody else can probably explain the reasoning...

Sad that Aqu has fallen so much esp being flush with all the casino money. And by casino money, I mean the most profitable casino in North America.

We've seen over and over and over again that subsidies don't help the product as a gambling game. I'd even say it hurts. The problem for bettors is that we don't matter much as long as the subsidies flow in.
