There was a time in my life I went to AQU by bus in the most extreme winter weather conditions they could run under (which was pretty extreme back in those days). Now, I can barely muster the enthusiasm to go even if I own a piece of a horse that is running. I believe the purses will be Belmont level (as least for awhile), there will still be some good weather, and the best barns should hang around for awhile. That should help AQU's handle relative to the typical winter months when the quality declines.
