It would be horrible news for the industry if Freehold, the oldest harness track in the world, went out of business. I watched a bit the last two days. How has Penn Gaming run this into the ground? Who closes a sportsbook and turns in a gaming license right before football season? These guys makes NYC OTB look like a success story.
I would miss seeing this historic track. Meanwhile, their pools might actually be better than Yonkers and Pocono. Also, this new track announcer is pretty darn good and he gave out a bunch of good winners on air today while I was watching.
I hope they find a path to success and resuscitate some life into the place.
