I thought tracks keep 50% and the other 50% goes to purses? that would make it  25k to purses? or about $2000 purses starting next week if they can continue to handle 1 million per night.
You are correct , Porky. And 5% would be on the high end.

 Lokk , there are two components that make up the greatest share of the pie when it comes to making a successful racing meet. One is the backing from the state the other is a expertly crafted market plan from management. Currently, neither party has the slightest interest in horse racing. Racing for OTB only is a disaster plan. Unfortunately, it is the only plan.

  • Trigger: The BigM on life support, no casino, no good, maybe gets the casino and closes racing down.  Without the BigM The SBOANJ might as well be on Mars!  The only thing that stinks more in NJ than Jiffy Jeff & Fatso, is the smell!  ;D
