POMPANO VS. GULFSTREAM

[toothman]

Riddle me this, Batman
So why are the runners running but trotters aren't trotting?

[PIGLAND]

handle

[LUCPARK]

BATMAN VERSUS SUPERMAN,

SUPERMAN ALWAYS WINS



 

[toothman]

Don't they realize that they're the only game in town?

[Racing Troll]

  IF THERE EVER WAS A GROUP FULL OF VIRUS JUST LOOKING TO SPREAD IT, IT WOULD BE HARNESS HORSEMEN

[Harness Stats]

BATMAN VERSUS SUPERMAN,

SUPERMAN ALWAYS WINS



 

You need to watch Dawn of Justice again.  More of a standoff ..  Superman probably could have killed him anytime he wanted but there were too many morals the writers wanted to float around

In real life comparing Gulfstream with Pompano is like comparing the Empire State Building  or Willis Tower with a mud hut in Cameroon

[chief yogi]

if pomp was running they would be handleing a million a night.

[PIGLAND]

they would need to handle 20 million to break even

[Rabbi Of Racing]

Grilt cheese time for me

[Brown jug]

so i brought this up a month ago not just for pompano but other tracks
but many commented the idea of racing was idiotic while people are dying
no detail as to who are dying and where and why just a general comment with little facts
it continues to be proven racing can go on in a safe manner  and if an issue arises than steps need to be taken
doesn't matter what any of us think , bottom line  is gulfstream and a few others have successfully raced , handled huge purses and importantly kept cash flowing to owners on down
just the facts

[Rabbi Of Racing]

you are 100% correct

[Brown jug]

of course areas like ny, nj or highly infected areas must be treated cautiously
 unfortunate circumstances in a specific area or family do not need to dictate actions of other areas
the comment on different circumstances is correct, my point exactly
should gulfstream have shut down because of the issues at yonkers,apparently not
i think the people earning a living at gulfstream would suggest not
hindsight is not 20/20, its an excuse people use when they have erred

[FirstUpFrom8Hole]

The handles at gulfstream have been huge but by the time the adw and all the other fees are taken out there ain't much left. Tracks have to have people in the stands to make money.

[Dingus]

I brought this up with Gabe Prewitt, and he said the casino funds the racing, and with the casino closed, there is no money for racing.
So there was no money in the purse account?
That’s BS.
El Dorado wanted an excuse to end racing- remember the lawsuit to allow jai Alai?
Pompano could have had $2M in nightly handle if they were the only game in the US.
Cmon- Gulfstream and Pompano are in the same County!

[Osufalcon]

2 million in ADW wagers net the horsemen purse account about $36,000-$38,000.  Ten races with purses from $3,600-$4,000 is about all you could do if the purse account doesn’t have any reserves.
