I can absolutely live with the Dark days on the two Sundays (although I am sure the track would be open on Palm Sunday if it were their choice). However, losing the internet platform and I am assuming internet Video feed on two consecutive Sundays hurts. Unless something changed since last year.

I am Catholic. End annual gripe...

Palm Sunday...Easter Sunday...The NYS Racing and Wagering Board and the NYS Legislature don't give a F__K about he bettors in the State much less the racing industry. Why do you think it took almost ten years to get the casino at Aqueduct to become a reality?

I will give you the legislature and I have posted my opinion regarding that in the past, but Sabini has proven to be a racing and bettor friendly Chairman of the NYS Wagering Board. He is the type of guy who is correcting many of mistakes that have been made, hence why I asked Steve to communicate to him because he understands the changes that are necessary. To think otherwise on Sabini is just plain trolling.

I didn't realize the whole platform was not open, this is silly. I was saying I didn't begrudge the race trackers having Easter with their family. If other jurisdictions choose to race, the computer platform should be open.

Word is that if the P6 keeps on carrying that they are gonna do the mandatory payout on SATURDAY the 23rd, and not on Easter, which is closing day Sunday, specifically because NY and KY are shut down.

You're comments are fair. I will respect the fact that Sabini is trying.
