Its clear as day, the knives are out and track management has been put on notice. Its laughable that people think Stronach "volunteered" to do this and are bitching about them. California is the perfect state to come after horse racing. I'm quite sure phone calls and ultimatums have been delivered...…...and its got nothing to do with PETA. We are talking about political might here.
For all the "racing is fine deniers" that have been looking the other way for decades......the wolves are at the door, they see an opening with the public, and they smell blood. The word "hearings" is rumbling around. This is what happens when "business as usual" means never looking at yourself internally. In comes people you really don't want managing your game....as in, you reap, what you sow. You wont scale the game back and run the appropriate amount of races for the horses you have. Someone gonna step in and do it for you! Make no mistake about it.....they after you!
Of course, many states sanction all this racing.....they want the money. But never under estimate the walking of a "political pony."
