Those numbers were severely inflated due to the fact that most tracks were closed at the time. Also horse racing was the only sport to bet on. A major miss at all these tracks ( especially Saratoga) was my idea I mentioned a while back on here.....drive thru wagering. It became a reality this past week at Plainridge In Massachusetts. Saratoga missed out on a lot of dead money this year and the drive thru betting would have made up for a portion of that. My understanding is that nobody thought of it until it was too late to make a plan.
