20 years ago, you raced quarter claimers at Monticello for $1,000. You raced $4K claimers at Yonkers fir $2,500. What people do is gobble up the new sausage but, never look at how the sausage is made.
Faraldo is many things, including a smart lawyer. He not only negotiated a contract for the horsemen at Yonkers that guarantees them present money for nothing but also the future for free.
He did the same shit to OTB and they took it , hook line and sinker. Now, the Horsemen of Monticello are his OTB.
Don't expect the Racing Commission to help Monti horsemen, as they signed off on the deal.
Don't expect a court case with solid contract lawyers to build a case for Monticello as NYSBOA has enough money and resources to fight a war.
The whole dam thing may just implode for all to lose out.
