Track is vacant most of the time. Frankly I'm surprised they haven't sold parts of the parking lot already. I know they tried to get a mall development built some 15 years ago but that didn't go over...

They called their bluff. At the end of the date its the state that controls the schedule. My guess is the Stronach group thought they could use their weight to get things done in their favor.

Nothing will happen because now the MLB has their hand in the gambling cookie jar. The MLB who was lecturing players about the dangers of gambling is now an investor in gambling companies. Also they...

Oh don't get me wrong, I think the Big Cap is still a big deal, but its probably in my mind and how I remember what the race used to be. It used to be one of their big attendance days, now not so...

Exactly, it was a track whose glory and time was another era. The world moved onto satellite wagering and now betting on your cell phone and computer. Other tracks offer bigger purses, bigger fields...

The state has already hired somebody to consult on the future use of the Del Mar property....safe to say its probably not going to be the only horse racing track left if the rest of the circuit...

The city of Arcadia may want to keep it as a horse racing track, but if the track isn't pulling its weight, aka giving tax revenue like it used to, the city may not care if it continues as a horse...

Los Alamitos is not long for this world either. I've heard that once Doc passes the property will be sold.

I don't think anybody is going to save it if they threaten to shut it down. In fact they would probably assist them in getting it done.

They bought it to build a new stadium. Or at least use the property as leverage to get financial help from the taxpayers to get a new stadium built. Guess they will now just sell off the Arlington...

Well the new building is about 1/4 the size of the old one. Guessing it offers all the amenities of today, costs way less to heat and cool and reduced maintenance. Other than the big days, the...

I was there at Big Cap day a couple years ago and its pretty much a shadow of what it used to be. By this I mean by the crowds that showed up, it could've been mistaken for any other Saturday at...

You giving up on him after a miserable playoff performance? Josh Allen keeps coming up short against the KC buzzsaw ever year but nobody thinks his job is in danger.

Its for the industry people. The owners, breeders, and trainers. I never got the sense that the fans cared much about who won.

My guess is the no racing in the rain was too strict. There is a certain level of moisture that the track can receive where its still good to race. Lets not forget that there is a drainage system...

It was pretty obvious Cody's Wish won when his sister was brought up to the stage to announce the winner before the envelope was even opened.

Its more likely the found money will be diverted to non-horse racing programs. So in other words all that work for nothing.

The people that cared about the sport in California have expired. The ones that are still around are not in big enough numbers to influence anything.

I would say that a sport based on farm animals running around in a circle probably doesn't resonate with a lot of people who grew up in the city or suburbs. Horse racing worked up until the 2000s...

Which track will be the last one that survives out here on the west coast. I'm guessing Santa Anita and Del Mar will probably be repurposed.

How does it hamstrung the team if he's bringing in more money than they are paying out? From what I've read all the Dodgers would have to do to pay out his contract is put $44 million into an escrow...

Yep, I can just see some anti-tax advocacy group sniffing around looking at why certain taxes are being used for something else. It will also get the media on their case once again.
