I see the logic of this proposal, as Oaklawn could probably attract a bit more of the November - December handle, though like the horses, a lot of players take a break too after Breeder's Cup.
The weather is a concern, but the racing over the holidays could be a bit of draw. I'm in favor of it, because I do okay at OP, while I can't pick my nose with TP or LA racing.
What I want to know is when is OakLAWN going to install a turf course? Like TURFway Park, they have a misleading name with just a dirt/all-weather surface.....
