You're looking at it the wrong way. NYRA shutting down dirt racing in the winter will surely mean a migration of NY based stables south for a shot at one of the three dirt races Gulfstream might card on a given day! Heck, horse racing fans may even see a full field of 12 contesting a dirt race in South Florida again.
Of course NYRA, in turn, can lure all those synthetic specialists to the frosty surfaces, and abundant purses in Elmont! Who wouldn't welcome Saffie Joseph bringing half his stock up north? Someone will need to take Linda Rice's place!
