The optics here are very bad. Meeting with the legislators was not good. The current horsemen's organization did not even send a member!

It's always been about the casinos. Racing is an afterthought.

Gulfstream's casino is the least profitable in the state-if you read closely they are willing to close the casino and track and sell the land.

Yes, but it's not a real casino... no table games.

  • 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
