Hoosier Park will kill the goose that lays the golden eggs.

[Six Pence]

Hoosier Park wants to be considered as one of the top three  harness tracks in North America.  They already have the horse power but are sorely lacking in track management.  They rape the purse account to put on the Breeder's Crown every three years but do their damndest to ruin the spectacle.  They don't even mow the weeds in the paddock that is used for the BC.  They didn't have enough seating in the past so what do they do but remove 800 seats permanently.  Can you imagine spending all of the money that is deemed necessary to have a BC entry and not having a place for you or your spouse to be seated.  You won't have much better luck if you decide to make it up to your spouse by dining at the track.  All eating establishments are closed except for the steak house.  You better hope your entry gets a check because a steak dinner for two will set you back a couple hundred dollars.  Another example of the bright boys and girls who make the management decision is the proposal that once a horse is stabled on the grounds, it will not be allowed to leave until the meet is over.  If it leaves it will not be allowed to return.  They now have cameras in all of the wash stalls to complement the cameras in all of the other stalls.  Needless to say, those who stable off track have all of the advantages and that is why 99% of the cheating takes place there.

All I've heard was good things about Hoosier Park and how well it's run. I've had a horse race there once. Licensing was real easy. Only minor complaint was from a groom who said the distant between the paddock and the club house was a long way. The feedback concerning the BC was that it was first class.

Hop is without a doubt the best overall place to race horses bar none. Homer and Connie and jay have raced horses at every track that ever existed. If you don’t like it then don’t race here. And the management and staff is second to none. Scott our race secretary knows his shit and Rick Moore ford one hell of a job running the ship. Mike chamberlain is probably the top race announcer in the country. If you don’t like hop then there is no hope for you. Here’s to opening week next week! Let’s rock. Keep an eye out for our horses when the money is on the line. Jay has them ready to go.

None of your comments address the real issues as noted in the original post.  Maybe that's why Ricky and Jamie kicked you to the curb.  Sometimes fractional owners just aren't worth the BS that they bring with them.  Not being an Indiana resident, you really don't care about the long term impact of bad management on Indiana racing.  Now you are with an off track out of state trainer who doesn't give you any attention.  Don't feel bad........he doesn't give any of his major owners much attention either.  You and Frank keep drinking that Amish Kool-Aid.  It helps you ignore the real symptoms and issues.

[Harness racer]

I've actually started to like Hoosier.  I'd bet there before most places.  Tough break on some of your horses being driven by Ricky the Retard.  He's the worst!

[polish jola]

I would like them better if they raised the purses!!!

[LUCPARK]

I would like them better if they raised the purses!!!

I heard up ten percent coming soon 

[HarnessFan1981]

On condition sheet, lowest 6.5K and highest 22K. Not too bad honestly.
If goes up 10% or more down the road, good news!

Having the BC there has to show it's a good facility.  Look how many tracks never get to host it. Looking forward to possibly going there this year.

[racing123]

maybe hawthorne can get BC next year,,,,everyone can pile in on the turn 40 yards past the finish line and watch the races up close!!  And if that's not your thing?  The dining area inside with TVs and SAM machines from the 1980s is another option....oh wait, there is no dining area any more...HAWTY!! THE IN TOWN TRACK AND SOON TO BE RACINO!!

[polish jola]

It would be nice to see purses, especially ISS bred stakes raised, like Ohio has done!!
400K finals!!!  THAT'S IMPRESSIVE!
