The Night the Lights went Out at the Big M. They had to cancel the final four races. Don't they have backup generators? Just a first-class operation.

Only the one station at the quarter pole was out

Happened at Pompano in 2004. Every other bank was out, and they still raced. Plenty of shadows on the racetrack. Wally Hennessey went home and didn't race. I had a horse in to go that night and my trainer sent me to her trailer for a shadow roll for the horse.

Saved huge on their electric bill!!!

Maybe start with putting the 2or3 amature races at the end of the card, like in the 12th n 13th race, make those guys sit around instead of $240k stakes finals..

Do you have detailed information about what happened? Remember we just had many of the airlines shut down over a software update.

Gural and Settlrmoir got what they deserve
the first race goes off not before 6:45 but they always say its 6:20
the race before they handed out award for driver and trainer of the meet, the time between races was 35 minutes
Gural actually believes dragging helps handle-but we all know over half the handle comes in after the race starts, so dragging is irrelevant
They are not very bright to say the least
Zero minutes till post for 10 minutes or more doesnt help anyone

The drag last night was outrageous. The click would sit at 0 minutes to post for a half hour. You got drivers and horses on the track doing circles with no idea when they're going to line up.
The drag will not put any more money in the pool. Most gamblers like to know that when the clock says 1 minute until post that actually means they're behind the gate in 60 seconds. Every race. As a driver I like to know the exact time I have for horses that have to be scored down in a certain way. Stop playing Freddy fuckaround and get on an actual schedule.

Drag absolutely enhances handle. Cutting it out would cost them significant money

The data shows it does.

The only way to have "data" is to run the races strictly on time
since that never happens how could any data be presented?

They actually did a no drag test, and it reduced handle by 22%!

When was this 20 years ago?
how could handle be off 22% when about half the handle is computer bets after the gate leaves?
absurd

Well at least you know what your talking about ngc3 ngc3 ngc3 ngc3 it was 2 years ago.
And your wrong twice, do you just throw shit @ the wall to see what sticks? You have no proof half the handle is CAW. Just more made up BULL!

I'd love to see some type of evidence that about that the handle is CAW money. I agree imthag the poster has picked that number out of thin air

You are both too ignorant to understand.

Do you have any type of evidence to suport your claim? Anything at all? I'd bet a lot of money that you do not

check the pools before the gate leaves and then the final click and compare
also--show me proof that about 50% ISNT CAW?

I do that regularly. I see no evidence of 50%.
You previously that you do not bet the meadowlands. Hard to believe you are monitoring pools and that you see double polls from last flash to pools closed. If you have screenshot and post them, I'll believe it. Until then, I'll go by a reliable source that tells me a way lower number. Way lower

The marketing profession knows much more about you than you know. A large segment of the population has a tendency to procrastinate. This kind of behavior is studied constantly.

The marketing people have access to the millisecond every bet is placed. Plus the marketing profession knows human behavior from similar situations. I hate the drag but it increases handle.
