I don't know if anyone has mentioned this that Rods discussions about contrbutions from the race tracks were from the Standardbreds not Thoroughbreds. John Johnston owns Balmoral and Maywood park.
Did not know that -- but maybe you TB folks need to make sure the media and internet are making that qualification. Right now, it's just "racetrack" and "horse racing" that you hear -- which of course makes the average Joe think the TBs. And in Chicago, the non-racing public hears "racetrack" and thinks "Arlington".
