I am not convinced Mr. Stronach has assembled "bottom of the barrel management".

The "issues" at GP, (of which post drag and the condition of the turf are but two of many), have been discussed ad infinitum.

Yet, handle, continues to thrive

I go for lunch on Friday afternoons to an OTB to meet up with friends and mess around with a few pooled wagers. We are constantly surprised to hear the very large room get most animated when a GP race is run. Year round racing has helped create a brand. The patrons are loyal followers....GP is their track. I think management deserves their bonus!

Talk about GP has come to a whimpered end. It is exactly what it is. You don't like it. Too bad!

There is one way to force management to change. Stop playing GP! I mean stop! Don't play, don't look..........and during the winter, don't play, don't look! Things would change then...but that won't be happening! Rebates are too good, best winter racing, etc, etc.

Nonsense at GP stops when the handle drops...end of story
