I don't know what the brand reference means, or how to measure it. I have been playing horses most days for years, and have no particular feeling about Saratoga superiority. I look at the entries every day and play or don't play Saratoga based on how I feel about that card compared to other tracks.

True. And running it at Saratoga without fans is running it elsewhere, and you can't predict the results. I fail to see how running at Saratoga or running Saratoga at Belmont could have any effect on me as an on-line player. And there are obvious advantages to the horsemen, at a time when they need every advantage they can get to keep the sport alive.
