Churchill chief calls for downsizing market

[Alan07]

A significantly smaller North American racing industry with half as many major racetracks and twice the average purse per race would make racing profitable for both racetrack operators and horse owners by 2020, Robert Evans, the chief executive of Churchill Downs, said during the opening presentation on Tuesday at the University of Arizona Race Track Industry Program Symposium on Racing and Gaming in Tucson.

I'd rather listen to Sarah Palin's thoughts on the industry than that clown.

Palin knows enough not to raise takeout. And she can make a mean grilled cheese.

consider the source...of course he is not in favor of keeping smaller tracks. that would be like wal mart wanting small grocers to thrive. pretty soon churchill will be renamed KFC downs and the turf course will be called taco bell track. what a joke
