I see to today as a race getting taken off the grass because it rained hard. No more than that.
What else?
Some people just don't like the place I guess. But using the weather to throw stones at them? Really, now. What else?

as an example i will not be going to gulfstream to play night simulcasting this wekk as i usually do because:1) there is no guarantee they will have any betting windows open in their restaurant area which has thousands of seats and is the best place to watch racingif it were run properly. i have been there before where there were no windows open self serve or otherwise, 2) they claim they have no ability to change the channels on the overhead tv's, sometimes they will have just 1 or 2 tracks shown and be missing all the others, 3) they close down mid-card, if there are not enough players they will just close up in the middle of the cards, they had originally committed to open till i believe 11:30 or midnight to show simulcasting, but if it is not busy enough they just close last week about 10pm. imagine being in a macys before closing and they say hey get out we doont have enough shoppers!! they should keep there committment to whatever time they decide to open until, 4) to keep this as short as possible i suggest you read andrew beyers article about how gulfstream is set up in the daily racing form from a couple weeks ago. he hits the nail on the head as to their many other shortcomings.
