I haven’t officially heard that lame excuse.

Is track management finally emulating a bit of HK racing by experimenting with a “2-day” per week race schedule?
And why not?
The Mutual and Exotic pool handles were significantly larger today (Sun 4/18). Sure they’re not HK numbers, but in fact, just the Win pool alone averaged about a ¼ Million dollars per race. What I found a bit surprising though was that the $1 Exacta pools (which are normally nearly as large as the Win pool in each race) were obviously lower by an approx. average of 30% per race.
In any case the players haven’t abandoned SA yet, and have noticeably indicated that support by the increasing in the O.A. handle today!
