DJT trying to prevent a major, major market sell-off on Mon and Tues with the Fed slashing the rate. DJT wanted his money out of the market before it crashed along with his many DJT lovers. But that didn't happen, because it was a hoax  . Only problem it wasn't, and look for major life style changes and the virus count to substantially increase this week  .

By April 1, every track will be closed.

typically, you have no basis - just any nasty, negative position you can embrace.  April 1 is perfect for you  >?  APRIL FOOLS DAY

[Harness Stats]

April 1st is actually optimistic.   I wouldn't be surprised if they all shut down by next weekend.  Let's hope they don't have to.

Fuck Off, Fuzz Nutz

Despite my optimistic vision.  Realistically, the effort to keep paddocks clean, personnel separated and all the other requisites to tamp the virus down more then likely, won't be adhered to - so, can the tracks keep racing ?  Not w/o a stern overseer from state HHAs.

Illinois just required all business with a bar or restaurant to close to indoor patrons starting Monday night.

The otb has both and casinos are now closed for 2 weeks.

Tracks may still be able to race without patrons but I don't see how the otb's stay open.

Should be already dark.  wonder what excuse they have to be open while the rest of the country is being ordered to stay home, they must think they are more important than everyone else
