Who the he’ll would want their kid to grow up and be involved In Horse racing or grow up to be a gambler? Bad parenting right there, let alone set up a ‘career day’ at a school 😂😂😂😂🙅🏼‍♂️🙅🏼‍♂️🙅🏼‍♂️🙅🏼‍♂️😂😂😂

My children have 0 interest in buggy racing
they have zero interest in you as well
Not to be confused with HAKU.

First rule in business, those that were in charge of a demise should never be involved with coming up with a solution. And there's a solution, of course there is. But until you get fresh blood in there, the sport/game has zero chance to survive the downward trajectory its been on for over a decade. There are capable people that can fix both the supply (i.e. breeding) and the demand (i.e. increasing handle) sides. The obvious solution is get all the jurisdictions together to come up with a mutual agreement on how to address the differences in participation. Having Michigan and Chicago go to zero is not in the best interests of the sport. Having Yonkers and Gural fighting non stop might be the death knell for racing. As for the demand side, well that's simple. You hire someone competent to address all that ails that file. CAW's bye bye, stupid bets like those that Mohawk comes up with--gone immediately. Just my thoughts after sending it in and driving to every little track from PEI to Pompano

Why in the hell would you want your kids involved in harness racing? Do you really want to try and spend the day at the track with your kid? They will not be amused. Teach them about football, ya got a better shot, it's more interesting. And they probably bet it already. Has anybody seen the renditions of the new Yonkers, there isn't a track. Gural is 83 how long is he gonna last.

That's a careless and cruel thing to say and I'm sure if you give enough thought, you could re-phrase it another way. Plus, i have many friends who live incredible rich and happy lives working in the industry cheek by jowl with their family. I see it even more when I visit my friends at Keenland.
