Cumberland

Tough track to play. People stuff claimers with minimal claiming. Huge amount 0f 1/5 or less.

I agree. A lot of short prices. Every once in a while a "bomb" crosses the wire first. Usually has $40 bucks or so in the pools on the winner. LOL!

Cumberland makes Scarborough Downs look like a state of the art facility….

agreed. downs was a palace in compairson.  too bad, i thought cumberland would be improved some. the track is better but the rest is just awful. races are pretty much un betable. scott rambles so long he talks like every race the whole field has got a shot.   ks2 will dominate as long as he takes care of his self.
prop bet which happens first.    grandstand collapses or new track gets built.   grandstand collapses is barred from wagering.

By State law, First Tracks gets a very big number from the state each day to conduct racing. Not sure of the exact amount, so someone who knows, please share. You would think some of that money should be used to make the track more customer-friendly.

I believe you can goggle it to see how much each track / fair receives from the state ?  I'm sure Chris, Ben, Gunnar and others get a good piece of what they receive ?
