You mean Don Hoover "the great cornholio" couldn't balance the books? Too busy giving out that extra money
to all his Saratoga buddies, now a purse cut. Good work Donny boy, we will be so sad to see you go.

just in Mon Sept 30

Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown resigns to become new CEO and Pres Western Regional OTB effective Oct 5...a three year contract

NO!!!

Look at the plight of Buffalo New York because of political patronage and look how he got this gig!!

Does he know the difference between a thoroughbred and a standardbred?

Does he have a vocabulary of what an exacta, trifecta, superficial, etc. are?

Can’t wait for the responses here and if there is a press release/conference when this becomes official!!

Somewhere in the middle of a little and a lot.
None of which will be good, that you can be sure of.

  • Sweet: The fact of the matter is the win pool on Beau Jangles was I believe a negative pool,  his real odds not 1/9 but 1/99.  Enough already, we're the real patrons of thius F'ing sport, many of us also care for these animals despite the best don't want drugs and whipping, abuse.  Competition yes!
