I go back a few years with the Meadows and I don't think things are so gloom and doom. Actually they look assume starting with the 1st race Saturday featuring the World Champion Foiled Again in town.
I remember before slots when the biggest purse for the week was $6,500 and
you know Ron Burke was racing then.
If Mom and Pop can't compete on the big track they should consider trying the county fairs or go over to the Meadowlands they don't have slots and always need horse's to fill the box.
You can't have it both ways folks.
