Just average

Only 5 beaten favorites out of 9 races. A little less than average today

Even if they cleaned up the product it won't bring many new fans. For the most part, people who go to or used to go to the racetrack are older people who continue to die and are not being replaced. Younger people would rather bet on sports or be in fantasy leagues. Can you imagine trying to explain to a younger person how to read a program or the racing form. You'd either put them to sleep or get nothing but blank stares.

I agree that there is no future for our sport.
So wouldnt it be nice for harness racing  to go out with some dignity, and not sink to the level of the worst cheaters?
I'm sure that there are trainers doing what they know is wrong and unsafe and would prefer not to be doing it but they feel they have to to keeo up with the cheats...

I am not a horseman, although I did ride a pony once as a kid - so please be kind when answering my question.
Thoroughbreds never seem to race when temperatures drop down into the twenties, how is it not a problem for standardbreds? Are harness horses more adaptable to winter weather or is it the difference between flat racing and harness racing - or something else?  REMEMBER BE NICE ......I repeat - I am NOT a horseman, I am a HORSE PLAYER (one of the few left, I might add!)
 

When is it to cold to race.....to me 5F is cold..yet flamboro racing
