Derby Notes
« on: September 06, 2020, 07:42:57 AM »
Kudos to TGJB for the call on Authentic.

I was watching the Churchill feed, not the NBC broadcast.  The scroll on the Churchilll feed showed front glue-on shoes as a change for Tiz the Law.  I did not hear the talking heads mention it.  Did they say anything on NBC about whether it was really a change and, if so, what caused it?

Handle on both the Derby and the undercard was down almost 50% from last year.

I would be curious about Jerry’s thoughts on handle reduction visa vis what he’s seeing with TG player services

We were up (record handle) my understanding is NYRA One was too. CD does a bunch on track when 150k people are there many of them both loaded and loaded.

I saw the same thing in the book earlier in the day, but I watched the race from the house, I didn’t catch them mention it once in the ~hour between the Forrester & the derby.

Wouldn\'t think it had that big an impact, but no one in NV put a dollar through the pari-mutuel pools as CDI and the casinos couldn\'t reach detente this year.
