What Settlemoir forgets to mention is that the Friday card is unwatchable and unbettable.  Numbers don't lie. The betting customer doesn't like the product. They are betting less and less.
     The top drivers can't drive in the Amateur races. There were 3 races last night. Then throw in the 74.5  and under Tm races with very low class horses and small purses. (That's 5 more races).   Between these 2 conditions. That's over half the card. 
     Then you have leading trainers saying that thier horses don't get into the Meadowlands because the class does not fill and they have to race elsewhere. And the leading drivers follow the leading trainers. Many have firm commitments to drive the trainer's stable.
    And the night's purses are low. Very low. These top drivers are the best in the game. They are in high demand. There are many bigger races elsewhere with far greater purses. And they will drive where they can make the most money and where the top trainers need them.
     Should be interesting to see how this plays out.
   

Re due the math winner don’t get 50% anymore .

Race 14..  9/1-4 cancel button ready

So what they are basically saying is that if the casino doesn't happen they will pull up stakes. I thought the sportsbook money a % was supposed to go to the purses.

I don’t see him getting a casino this Fall but New Jersey is so corrupt maybe he knows something we don’t.  I give Meadowlands until 2028 to survive.  Gural is going to pull the plug if the casino doesn’t happen.

I am going to be like Trigger.. not Sweet and not bet Mohawk until NA Cup night..except for the mandatory hi 5 payout in race 12.. done with that place

bobble has no interest.

That colony is whacked out.

I didn't realize there was a 12 horse at Mohawk 

Looks good so I added more wagers.

Good luck on race 23
