Racing is boring just about everywhere you look, the days of halfmile racing with 4 in and 4 out are over. Most tracks today are more like a gentlemen driving club with holes opening and no one getting parked unless they don't like you

Their sire stakes program is where some can make a living. It's a real nice program. 7 or 8 legs with purses of around $16,000 with 5-6 horse fields and a final for $100,000. One big problem though, is that there is one owner up there that has half the field in most races

  • dougie: IIB, I think the mayor will sign the bill if it reaches his desk. The optics on this issue is bad for the horse carriage industry. Animal activists are adept to using the media to enlist horror and anger by the public.

  • Ignorance Is Bliss: It's now a bill with city council. Public hearings will be scheduled then the council votes on it. If passed it's sent to the Mayor to sign into law. He has already said he's in. Marte just took over, Bob Holden is the actual author of the bill who retired last year.

  • dougie: IIB, I have been reading some of the work Councilman Marte has been doing on this issue. I think he might be successful with passing the 'Ryders Law" Bill this time around. The image of the horse dead on the street has even been seen here everywhere. If the animal activists can get this on the ballot, who knows how the vote will go.

  • Ignorance Is Bliss: You peaked at typing on Horseplop. Bravo. I was invited, that's Councilman Chris Marte next to me, good guy. [link]
