Title: Who Thinks Racing Should be allowed?
Post by: Harness Horseman on April 04, 2020, 11:27:37 AM
 Just a horseman and his horses, the drivers and racing officials.  No one else. I don't care if they allow betting or not.  That way there would be no post drag. Get the whole card over in less than 2 hours.  3 races in the paddock at one time if possible.  Trailers outside till it is your turn

Don´t think any state will allow it, they are putting their employees at risk. I can´t believe they will make harness racing a essential service. All racing states are in a no unnecessary travel ban. Do you really think they will give an exemption for harness racing? Pa wants to take the money away, this gives them the opening. Don´t think you will see racing till end of June at the earliest.

so lets put aside racing for the moment
any business that can operate safely needs to reopen asap to restart the economy
nobody is staying in full lockdown mode until june or longer
a new normal needs to be established
lets face it people go to the grocery store , yes it is essential but it does not mean it cant be transferd there
horse racing is one business that can operate with minimal interaction and thus a safe environment

Post by: jupiter on April 04, 2020, 05:36:30 PM
Ya the country needs to open racing asap, no patrons, run them like qualifiers, no one in paddock race from trailers. Sounds like a disaster in the making. States will NOT put their employees in harms way. Do you really think america really cares about harness racing.

WE need to race to pay our bills. Seems to be going fine at Gulfstream and Tampa. Lets hope the folks at Pompano are the first to go back up. There are normally 15 people in the stands so we can extend our social distancing to 50 feet. The paddock will be empty. This will give us the chance to get ready to ship when New York, Pa, and Mass. settle down by June 1.

the question was should harness racing be allowed
not how would it be funded and by whom
there is ways to get the funding  for purses( most of us don't have access to this information)
with all the money governments are throwing around you think they wont access it if they think harness should be a go
and save me the bs about who cares about harness racing, it is about getting people working asap so they can start to support the economy no matter what the job

EZ, Big boy - if the state sanctioning agency works w/ harness ass-o-ciations.  there is no reason that they can't get flexible, reduce the number of races, separate the paddock people and giddy-up.  the simulcast would be outta sight.  AND, the horsemen-women should be temperate checked when they arrive.  The problem is, for every industry in the country, that people want to do it like they've always done it.

THE BASIC FACT IS THAT IF YOU COME DOWN WITH THE VIRUS DOES NOT MEAN YOU WILL DIE

Nobody at these qualifiers but grooms and drivers.abd trainers who stable at these farms

Tehy will open tracks when it is safe no amount of pissing and moaning will not get them opened any earlier. I think states have more to worry about the plight of harness racing.

Tracks without casinos open first, that is a hell of a list, NO Pa, NY Ohio, Ky, Ind, We get Big M, Freehold, NJ Gov closed state till 5/15, but will give a dispensation for harness racing, I don´t think so.

NO HARM, all you have to do is have any one in the paddock get sick with this virus, then they SHUT the place DOWN and it will take a beating in the press, and maybe some law suits. Again do you think state employees are going to want to go back to possibly get sick when they can stay home and collect UEI. Better to sit back and let it all be done, You have people in NY and Cal saying they don´t see football starting on time, maybe thanksgiving. You are delusional if you think that racing is going to be on the front burner for most states. I am sorry a lot of horseman are broke. Long ago when we didn´t race year round people actually had to plan for a down time, now we are in the age of slot money, when they take that away you are going to be really SCREWED. Do you remember what the purses at most tracks were before slot money, most tracks purses were shit. Look at the big m, state money is back, if it goes do you think Gural is going to eat the losses again.

economics 101
anyone not taking unemployment is a help not a drag on the economy, and trust me the economy is and will be in horrific shape for some time
if you are working even at or slightly above minimum wage that helps(assuming people buy food ,gas etc) to get money flowing

also racing is not hard to do, use multiple paddocks for distancing or split race card into two halves, minimal people in the paddock, no tellers needed just online wagering, take the temperature of everyone coming in the paddock, everyone wears a mask and gloves and paddock gets washed down after each card
just like going to the grocery or liquor store or car garages

Great quote, only way he doesn´t do time is if he either finds a way to disappear or dies. SD of NY will get their pound of flesh. He is an animal abuser, cheat and they have him on tape admitting it. He will be held accountable, END of story.

I don't get the negativity about racing on this site.  If people don't enjoy harness racing, then why the hell do they comment on the harness site.  Hopefully this corona hysteria passes soon.  No doubt we will have an endless number of Monday morning quarterbacks bitching for the next year that we re-started the economy too soon.  Well, if we don't get it started soon, there won't be an economy left.  Being in the supply business for the race industry for several decades, i'd also like to mention that I've had more deadbeats from thoroughbred racing than I ever did from harness racing.  Never could understand where the TB people got the notion that they were any better off than other forms of horse racing.

Everyone on here that think the POS is innocent need to wake the fuck up, he was successful because he was a cheat plain and simple. Tell us how innocent Oakes, Allard. Banca etc are, PLEASE remember the FBI have tapes, and video of transactions between these geniuses. These people were successful because they cheated. I´m not saying people don t  go over the line a little but LOOK at the facts they trampled all over everybody. They screwed over everyone in the business. Do you like to race with the deck stacked against you. If found guilty they will spend time in prison it is not the county jail. The rest of their lives are ruined along with their families. I think this is far from over for these guys, remember the IRS will also be involved, how much money was made through criminal behavior. Phoney tax returns???????

Meadows canceled Currier and Ives, supposed to be May 22, so I don´t see them opening sooner than maybe June.

What a daily double Surick and Trump, A horse abuser and a human turd, what would be funny is Cohen leaving as they arrive, that would be justice. The only person who took responsibility goes to jail for paying for Trumps sluts.
