I must have missed this, but any reason that UK race numbers are no longer offered?

Yes, we weren\'t selling enough to justify the expense of getting the overnights electronically. Without that we would have to put each race card together by hand, too much work.

Thanks.  As an aside, Baffert\'s late developing 3yo Coil is getting a bit of attention these days.  I was thinking about betting him for the Classic, but damn, he just appears SLOW on the numbers.  You think there\'s any reason to expect an explosion? I mean he already went two turns and backed up and has already developed a fair bit from his 2yo top.  There\'s always his first dirt angle and of course his trainer...I dunno...50:1?

Does this affect the amount of races you will have number of for foreign horses running here or during the Dubai world cup card? In other words will I see more empty boxes down the sheet of foreign horses because you don\'t sell the UK numbers anymore.
