southern california has been at 8 races for quite some time now, northern california has 7 races many days. even Parx has had plenty of days with only 8 races, and now Mountaineer is down to 8 races where they used to have 10. when they had 10 i often found 2 or 3 races to play on a card. i like to watch the first 2 races to catch which way the bias of the track is before i bet my money. today we only have 8 races and the handle has dropped from close to $3 million down to about $1 million. it all means less races for me to play and less money to bet on those races.
as far as New York goes, i basically stopped playing there when they lowered the rebates 10 yeas ago. i have a strong suspicion that the handle there for the past Belmont meet has taken a very significant hit, while they had some execellent races.
