   It has been dismal for the bettors since u went belly up.

Actually back in the late 90s-when Ouellette was dominating--the racing was excellent

Delaware was one of the first outside Atlantic City to have casinos and for a few years the purses and horses were tops

I miss those Sunday nights at Brandywine

in 1987 everyone got at least 30 bucks for entering and that help some with gas or food.

Dover could care less, they are just happy to have horses fill the races

Is there a conflict of interest with Gural owning horses that race at the tracks he owns or runs? C'Mon. How about the big stables that are friendly with the race secetary's for they help them to fill races? You could say there is a conflict of interest everywhere.
