Me: stepping up onto soapbox now...
I know that industry decision makers in California (owners, trainers, track management, CHRB Commissioners, etc.) don't want to hear it.
BUT --
There's no such thing as a purse fairy. (Not my phrase. But it fits here so I'll use it.)
It ought to be obvious to everybody by now that SB 1072 has been a complete disaster - and that a change in direction is needed.
In my opinion, the ONLY way thoroughbred racing in California is going to generate increases in purse money is to generate increases in money BET by horseplayers on the product.
The question isn't whether or not horseplayers were right about SB 1072 being the wrong thing to do.
The question at this point should be:
What should we be doing next?
Me: stepping down off of soapbox.
