Default Terry Mayocks - Maybe buying Ellis

Article in the Courier Journal.

http://www.courier-journal.com/apps/...NESS/606230356

Terry seems like a good man, I had the pleasure of meeting him. I honestly think they should get rid of Ellis. They should keep racing at Churchill all summer.

I find it highly unlikely they would race at Churchill through the summer unless they significantly reduced the purse structure.

As for Terry ( it's Meyocks by the way ) leading a group to buy Ellis....I'll take Elvis resurfacing as slightly more likely.

What a game.

Default Now Cooled Down!

Actually! Since I live in Evansville and not in Louisville-Lexington area. What CD should do is change the dirt track and make it into a 2nd turf track. Open Racing for 2 weeks. Just like Kentucky Downs. Make it last 2 weeks in August. Have Churchill go to August. Come in town for the 2 weeks and then off to Keeneland. Then the rest of the year, make it a training center. Need to update the stalls for it though. With a few new barns coming in already, it could establish itself that already. Then simulcasting will be there all year long for patrons.

I have other ideas.

Like a nice restaurant would work for one with better food.
