My fear with Stronach vis a vis NYRA
is that racing in NY is currently a
political football, with OTB on the
ropes and Spitzer, the wannabe gov,
making a pinata out of NYRA.
Frnk Stro seemed to have no impact
in Maryland, another state where
racing is now a political issue.
From all reports, racing in MD
is nearly extinct.
If NYRA loses the franchise in 07,
I would rather see the twin spires
people get it, even though it would
take some chutzpah to display their
ever present logo at New York tracks.
At least they have a century of
experience running racing, as opposed
to the auto parts guy. i take nothing away
from him as a brilliant breeder/owner.
