So many tracks no betting pools

[harnessplop]

I remember growing up how during the week tracks would run and pools were large. Laurel is crap now.....now Santa Anita 3x week..used to be 5x. Even Gulfstream has reduced rscing dates in 2026. Pretty soon...it will be churchill....keen eland...Belmont Saratoga. Foals ate down 40 percent since 2011...sad for sure.
