less covered, outdoor seats, but the best thoroughbreds in the world, and purses doubling by '08.

the fifty million outdoor, covered seat model at Bel really hasn't been too successful recently. what's it, 90% empty on the average day? every other race NY breds? just too much new gaming competition from other sources it seems.

i'm taking a positive view on the new GP. i prefer the atmosphere at Dmr, Sar, or Kee, but one racino with great racing is just fine with me.
