Some on here are purely NYRA haters. Of course there will always be those who despise the best in the business. And NYRA is the best in the business....
Perfect? Nope. Show me perfect. I will direct you to Fantasy Land.
I absolutely agree. They are THE BEST in the business, at least to me.

The website has improved dramatically, the shows are entertaining and the talent is there (on air).

I've criticized them before when applicable and applaud them as much as possible for great performance. I don't like people who only find the time to complain. Time for compliments should be made as well and more so.

They do deserve the credit for keeping the top circuit in America going strong.

Question. For years, NYRA used to post the track condition and let you know if any races were OFF the turf at about 7 am or 8 am. This was done without scratches, well before scratch time.

Why don't they do that anymore? Or am I missing it?

Ok, I'm open to that. So, can you kindly tell me where the track condition is posted in the a.m.? (Like they did, after listening to many players about 8 years ago).

For the record, I am not knocking them. I asked so I can find it as I needed it this morning.

No idea. I've spent the past half hour trying to create an account to watch live video. Thought I finally got there but I can't log in. I suspect NYRA is not exactly encouraging this service.

Can't watch talking horses on the site either. Even though there's a link to watch it live. Well done

IN "computer" find "cookies".....Then change the setting to 'allow'...
That might clear up the issue

Once you find the entries, if you want to print them there is no print button, when you do print there are eleven to twelve pages.

Seriously, does anyone know the answer to this?

2) These MINIMUM payoffs are getting on my F'N nerves.

Why are we catering to .50 triple players and $1 box players???

For centuries we have had payoffs to the $2 increment. Why change them?

At first, I didn't care but the more I need to multiply by 2 times 14, I am getting annoyed.

At least show the $2 payoffs for everything and then show the stupid minimum.

Etc.......still works. The address bar is the secret

I just solved it for ya......come to this page first and click on the link. Save it as a bookmark.

Now, you're going to have to figure out how to spell the one that starts with an "A"

In this day in age I'm still kind of baffled why all payoffs at every track aren't just universally shown as the payout for $1. When trying to figure out calculations etc wouldn't this just make everyone's life nice & easy?

It very well could be me.......

I clicked on your links and it brings me to the pages that I normally get to without a problem.

Maybe I'm not being clear enough.

I'll try again.

Back in the day, NYRA used to say races 2 and 4 are off the turf but races 8 and 9 are on the turf AT 7 AM. They also would list the track conditions well before scratch time at 7 AM.

That's what I still don't see on their new Website.

Is that what you found?

I appreciate the help Just Ralph
