Would Keystone/Philadelphia Park (pre-slots) have cancelled for this reason? Having those machines humming everyday sure must be nice. Before slots, a bunch of overweight jockeys would have been riding that day because the races were going...as scheduled.
It is my understanding that the jockeys decided not to ride, thus the cancellation. Oversized purses...once again, must be nice.
Seriously...I would have to imagine anyone that follows/wagers on this track has to spend a lot of time frustrated. And that's BEFORE their money gets run over.
