Tim Tetrick raced at yonkers a few weeks ago on a saturday, non stakes card.

The Gural rule dictates that he is now banned from all Meadowlands stakes races.

The thing most people don't understand when they see handle is the fact that tracks sell their signal for a small percentage about 3 or 4 % When yonkers bets a million off track they get a whopping 30 thousand dollars! Let that sink in.

Do YOU understand that, at the same time, Yonkers is importing tracks and keeping the big piece of that skim? 

Well, do you?

Are you suggesting what Yonkers handles on NYRA or Gulfstream... A portion of that should go to harness horsemen's purses?

Ya I do understand that. But how much can they be importing? There is nobody there.

What babble are you talking about? I only corrected you statement. it cost 120 million to build that was put up by investors and Gural.   . If there is never a casino oh well good luck with building. if there is a casino and he doesn't get it then he makes 10 percent profit on his 120 investment. THATS THE STORY. NO OTHER STORIES

True Gural gets his money back if there’s a casino allowed in North Jersey and he doesn’t get it. Forget that you want to talk about who’s driving there??? No one should be!!! Did you know he takes money out of the drivers 5% to sponsor races?? So basically the drivers have to pay him to race there. So who in their right mind would want to race there??
