Handle was huge for Bangor.  Racing was good, some prices, mostly dependable Ranger, Drew, Deslandes, Mosher.  Switzer was erratic, but did get one win.

Off-topic, but who was the announcer today? IMHO, an improvement over the regular guy.

watching on tv it just looked bad, which is all i had to go on. let see if the horse wins next out easy.    im only bitching because we are off to a great start at both tracks. we need happy fans to keep betting. the industry especially in maine is fragile and the big upward handle is such a great thing for us all. i wish it continues. hope to that next months opening will continue the trend. the better the handle the better our future. while not the same as the 80's the biggger handles will hopefully make our industry a little stronger with the statehouse.
