Santa Clause must have been here last night. When I opened my computer I was greeted by an e-mail from YouBet and they will have betting and video from Santa Anita, Gulfstream and all the Magna tracks!!

Also the Race Replays site will add the Magna tracks to their servise.

Is this a Christmas Miracle or what?

It's great ot see Magna and CDI start to be on some of the same services (such as YouBet Total Access and RaceReplays). Hopefully, more will come. Let's hear it for the bettor!

This is like living the last minutes of It's a Wonderful Life-George Baily takes all that money from under the tree and builds Santa Anitia Park as his new development, then Clarence goes there and loses his wings on the triple! Turns out Uncle Billy lost that money from a bet series of doubles at Golden Gate, but he gets right again when Donna Reed gives him a tip on opening day.
Mr. Potter, now hard up for cash flow, agree to a truce and lets his own Kentucky tracks be simucast on the Baily Betting Network.
More Eggnog!! Heh Heh.

Tom,

Take a step back. You may be near the edge. <G>

Dave,
It's ok. Tom has two to three feet of freshly fallen snow since noon on Christmas Day to cushion his fall!

Maybe Magna figures they can't run YouBet out of business so they might as well co-operate?

Could this lead to co-operation in other areas, like a
Magna/NYRA/CDSN cable TV channel for horse racing?... available everywhere like the golf channel?

Now that you guys mention it, SA appears on the Brisbet menu this year (doesn't necessarily mean they are accepting wagers) ... but if I remember correctly, it wasn't even on the menu last year.

Sounds like one big conspiracy to raise handle! Nah couldn't be.

Lots of snow. Lots of shoveling. Good news is that the intermitent back spasms really break up the monotony of the constant throbingof the frostbite.
Now, whee is that Form? (*owch*)
