A dying job for a dying breed of customer. Sorry guys, but giving the track the flexibility to lower staffing when there's more tellers than customers is a very reasonable ask. If this is the hill you want to die on, then the tracks will just bite the bullet and move on without you.
I was at Belmont for the final Triple Crown race. In addition to the regular windows, they need to add some specialized windows.

- No, it's not a video game window

- If you're a person that spends 5 minutes standing at the machine figuring out your $2 bet, everybody else in line gets a free punch window

- The, You don't know the difference between a pick-3 and a trifecta window

- The, I forgot to write down my bets so I'm trying to remember them window

- The, How hard can it be to bet a Pick-6 window

- The, let me run all these tickets I found to see if somebody threw a winner away window

Notable
• Del Mar announced the on-track handle for the day was $16,131,880, up 14 percent over
last year. The on-track crowd was down 3 percent.
• There were two winning Pick Six tickets that paid $45,744.60 each.
• There were no apparent injuries on the track, though one horse created a wild scene in the paddock before the fourth race. The Peter Miller-trained Flying to the Line, a 2-year-old filly appearing in her second race, refused to be walked, and then she reared up when apprentice jockey Heriberto Figueroa tried to get into the saddle. Figueroa sprang off just before Flying to the Line fell backward. The dazed horse was helped up, and though she didn’t appear to suffer an injury, she was scratched from the race.

I have a lot more data than I ever had before so I am going to track a few things such as prices.

One thing is noticeable though is that i can usually autotoss 3-4 horses with the software I use, at del mar that just has not been the case, very even horses for the most part. Saratoga there are many horses in the race I can just chuck, so in a sense the handicapping has been easier 3 cards into each place.
