Not a fan of the concept but a fan of the quote below! Trying their best to keep racing on the up!!!

"We are not Saratoga or Del Mar. We need to manufacture interest," Halstrom said. "We have good racing here but a lot of places have good racing.

"We are trying to do something different so new people might watch and or wager on."

    i guess its cool. was good when they swung for home.Yanks really know how to phuc things up though. They need to have two sets of barriers back to back, and have two packs running in a different direction. They are probably dumb enough to try it too.

    I really like their vision on manufacturing interest. This may not be the solution but out of the 10 ideas they try they will get one right. A lot can be learned by it. Rehashing all these different cultural days doesn't bring in any crowds (unless it Irish day).......

    Wouldn't say it's a new concept, Port Hedland have been doing it for years.
