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

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.
If you post about me, you hate puppies.

       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.

      Sincerely, Silent One
