It’s getting unbearable… set the post time and live by it. Does anyone care about the bettors anymore.

It’s also the horsemen.  They set lasix at 4 hours before scheduled post time, and the late races go off almost 5 hours after administering.
Meadows race 10:  scheduled post time- 8:10, actual time- 9:07

Harness racing is a business 1st
Sport 2nd
betting sport 3rd
Wealthy Breeders and owners come 1st
trainers and drivers come 2nd
And way down on the totem pole are caretakers and bettors
