People who work just don't get home in time for a lot these so called night tracks. I used top play Penn every single night. Haven't played it all in several years now.

Tom is right. If they truely wanted to avoid the heat, a 7:30 post time would be a lot more reasonable. Most of time, the temperature has moved at least 5 or 6 degrees of it highs by 7:30. I would have no problem with a 7:30 PT if they did it for heat related reasons. It show some real concern about the horses. It would probably cost some handle, but it is a reasonable compromise. I doubt if any race track will do it. It makes too much sense.
