If they get wiped out this year, will they double the purses next year for three year olds, or finally do 3/4 year old stakes races?
-
Way to soon to start talking about that, especially with the state SS. They start too early now. Start them in August and they would be over before Oct. some choices would have to be made between SS and Grand Circuit but so be it. If they go cancelling stake races the yearling sales will crash.

HOW GREEDY CAN THIS INDUSTRY BE? SOUND JUST LIKE DEMOCRAT GOVERNORS, ALWAYS BLAMING OTHERS FOR THEIR STATES AND THEIR OWN SHORTCOMINGS I.E CUOMO, GRETCHEN, ,MURPHY, NEWSOME, PRITZKER ALL GOT THEIR FINGERS POINTING
TAKE YOUR FEDERAL CHECK AND LIVE LIKE THE REST OF THE POPULATION

Early New York Sire Stakes seems quite doubtful

STEAKS ;D tmbz1

lot of the sires program and big stake program is funded by casino's
which are shut down. No Ding Ding Ding will result in less money turned over to racing.

NOT TO EARLY, THERE IS NO CHANCE OF IT THIS YEAR. THIS VIRUS HASNT EVEN POPPED THE PLUGS YET AND IS RUNNING ON EPO. WOULD WIN IF THEY WENT AROUND AGAIN.

All the media is showing is total cases. What % is over and done out ot that number ?

if they do not run them in 2020, would certainly like to see them just renamed and run as 4 yr olds, so in 2021 you would have stakes for 2 , 3, 4 yr olds specifically in addition to the aged stakes

It’s not going to be canceled

no one knows when(despite trumps april 12 date) but the world will need to start to edge back outside when it is safe including harness racing

Most stakes will likely race. Conflict between grand circuit and local sire stakes very likely now due to diminishing days to race. Not sure why Cal Expo the only track racing. Races can be conducted with minimal risk by limiting personnel and using multiple barns to race out of. No public. No owners. Only grooms, drivers, trainers and race officials. Would keep people and businesses employed as well as owners solvent. Captive audience with simulcasting due to limited racing opportunities to wager on. If you have horseman and horses stabled on grounds and training, then you can have racing. No reason to further economically decimate this industry and those that rely on it for a living.

Cal expo is the only track racing because it is the only track that generates its own purses.
Tracks are not closed, aside from Jonkers originally, to stop the spread, they are closed because who is going to pay the purses? Saratoga could have continued and purses were to be adjusted to handle, the horsemen refused to race for 400 bucks.
Until casinos can be reopened, which will be at least 7 months there will be no racing.
New York has decided to skip the budget leaving no chance to get money at one time destined for Sire Stakes. Cuomo has said after this is over they will do a retroactive budget and cuts to many funded programs is to be expected. I would assume every state will go this route as everything is shutdown. Trust me horse racing was already at the bottom of the list, now it isnt on the list.
The sport should have protected itself but the sheer greed of 98% of owners, trainers, officials, track management and the disrespect shown by the drivers to cheat, not try and fix races has totally taken away any outside support.
You reap what you sow...

Where are you getting all this information about $400.00 purses and 7 month casino closures from juice?
400 might have been the lowest condition. Figure 200,000 on a card handle, purse account gets about 3% towards purses. At 10 races is average 600. The horsemen refused to race for handle generated purses, Saratoga isnt giving the horsemen a nickel.
Casino’s will be one of the last businesses to receive the all clear. This is based on contacts at del lago in waterloo. There is no way to stop the spread in these places and no way to vet every customer.
