Shitty. I liked the late hours with the west coast time difference.

More horses to Hawthorne, Vernon, and a few other tracks if this is true!

Seems like it's life support now. What is it, 4 month meet, racing two days a week?

Actually it's one of the few tracks not on life support. That's more an East Coast welfare supported harness racing you're thinking of. Cal Ex is just dying a slow death and this may be euthanasia.

Cal Expo reports that last year, thoroughbred racing at the state fair accounted for $650,000. Revenue from harness
racing last year was $22,000.

I think that says it all.
