THE SO CALLED MECCA HAS CRAPPY RACES CRAPPY PURSES
MIAMI VALLEY HAS EMBARESSED THE SO CALLED MECCA
-
Not to mention 'MUCH' better drivers. They race more than twice a week too. ngc3
-
Where are these so-called better drivers come Grand Circuit time of the year. BigM has become like Gulfstream with their championship meet and the slugs meet when the good jocks switch tack to Belmont Keeneland etc.
-
You are talking isolated time frames. Fact is they[top drivers] aren't there much of the time. The ones that remain are inferior. It would be tough for most Ohio drivers to try and break in there, but why would they want to? Much more solid reliable daily,weekly,yearly money in Ohio, at least for the time being. Fact is the term 'MECCA' for the Meadowlands is a thing of the more and more distant past.
-
I think you just reinforced my point. The best drivers race through the summer at BigM bc thats where the vast majority of Stakes winners show up in baby races.
You really think these trainers would let one of these slashers and pointers to sit behind one of their young ones?
What reality are you living in.
-
I'll give you your due.When they are there, they do have a better colony. However as I said, they[top drivers] aren't there now , haven't been. They often leave to follow the money to Mohawk, Indy, Lex etc when they are. To each his own. You can have it. Personally , they could close it down tomorrow and I wouldn't lose any sleep.

garbage purses ,,,
track owner AKA ,,THE SAVIOR
WILL NEVER DO ANYTHING TO HURT HIS HANDLE
JUST FACTS,,
PURSES AND CHEAP HORSES HAVE PROVEN THAT.

CORRECT!
Right now, there is very little of a driving colony at The Meadowlands!
With comparable stock, how good would the Miami Valley guys be at The Meadowlands?
A better question is how many of the Miami Valley drivers could drive grand circuit stock and very good State Sires Stakes races against other top drivers and horses?
-
If everything is so much better at MVR then why can’t they at least do a 1 million dollar handle? Obviously the bettors don’t think much of the place

You're not allowed to disagree with Luc's rants........ I'm sure Gural is waiting by his computer to read more of the All Knowing Lucpark's FACTS/OPNIONS ngc3 ngc3 ngc3 ngc3 ngc3 ngc3 ngc3 ngc3 ngc3
I'm sure I will get some snappy reply to shut the F up or calling me an ass kisser.

If they ever started banning owners for a trainers suspension Pukepark would be out of business. He wants to cry about beards racing but some of his horses have Missy listed as trainer. Look up daddy Russ Beaman’s record

i tend to agree especially at this time of the year
but wait monticello does $1.1 the other day

Here is what is bad about Miami Valley
1) No Friday or Saturday Racing
2) 4:00p Start
3) Facility Sucks -- Flat grandstand. If you are not on the glass --- you can stand outside which the weather usually is not great / or look up about 30 feet to where they have TV's hanging
4) No Clubhouse with food options - not a big deal for me, but many would like to pay a couple of bucks to have a view of the track and maybe a TV to watch other tracks. -- Dayton Raceway has a pretty good seating area.
5) You are lucky if there are two live tellers --- and they are busy -- you can pull some interested people from the casino side, but they may not want to tackle the machines that has the bubbles of 30 current racing tracks --- and that's just for start.
6) Not sure how many people like playing 5/8ths mile tracks..... Today - what would be considered the most successful 5/8th track.
-
SCM outs Ruffalo and no replies from him to dispute anything.
Talk about the pot calling the kettle black!
Talks about Gural and this guy's nothing but a thief!
GTFOH!

5/8 mile racing is awful! tmbz1

favorite reply. But you're still a thief! Guess those car dealership charges were not you as well!

Mon, Tue, Wed. There is not 35 people in the grandstands. Announcer calls the race, finish, post parade and sits on his phone looking at pornhub between races.

What else is an announcer going to do between races?

Polish his rings? ngc3

Chris Page, a lightning fast driver selection.

Page is a great strategist. He sees the race 1/4 mile before the rest of the field and is often set up way before anyone else knows what's coming

You want food? Go to the casino, they couldn't possibly give a shit about horse players.

The casino proved that they don't give a crap -- when they built a flat grandstand. MVR really doesn't have any decent food options. They closed the buffet down, and they boast a high end steak house that has aged prime beef... It's aged because there is never anyone sitting in there.
-
MVG food is terrible. Buffet had that bloody prime rib there would be a line a mile long. Boys I'm not afraid of a little pink ;D but damn that was nasty.
-
But handles the most
-
doesn't Northfield do about double their handle
makes no sense based on quality of horses, purse size and most drivers are ok
-
Steve Carter's horses just won the 2nd and 3rd..stormin..2nd race hung the whole mile. Better save some for Charlie tmbz1

Meadowlands is alot better venue

Meadowlands is such a nicer venue
