Imagine how long the post drag will be for that card
Pathetic and pitiful that it has come to this
[/quote

the card will be scheduled to start at noon and finish by 11PM

nobody loves a long drag like Gabe

he invented the szero minutes till post for 15 minutes at Pompano

agree Hoosier will most likely move The Dan Patch and possibly some Indiana sire steaks to help avoid an embarrassing undercard

Telling comments from one of the leading trainers in the sport
That is pretty damning coming from Nancy..
She sounds pissed.
The only thing that would really come close to this is if the LBJ ever left Delaware.

So Apex has only raced at the Big M this year

Many trainers use the Big M as the place to get their horse ready

Moving it to Indiana??? Are they having prep races there.

The racing product between Hoosier and the Big M is just not comparable.  Two wide flow is weak to non-existent and the racing is just dull.  It’s a pacing track and I think this is a pretty shitty day for the Hambletonian and sport in general.  I say that as a guy from the Midwest

If true, that will show how much he 'CARES' about the sport. No one to blame but himself.

Gural is in it for the casino, plain and simple. He could give a shit about the hambo, probably just never thought they do it to him as he's been harping what a martyr he's been for NJ. Insufferable blow hard who always has his best interest at heart before the sport or the horsemen. Good for Indiana

Can someone tell me who is paying the purse for this.  Indiana?  Where are the purses coming from, the general purse fund? The overnight purses there aren't great to begin with.

my guess is Caesars is sponsoring/paying for a lot of it
