The wagering public do not care about the viewership.


The organizers of the events do, I'm quite sure. Which was my statement.

Which is why Belmont adjusted for it and they get a good handle every year. That’s what they care about… how much is bet. Not how many people watch.

Pimlico can fall in a sinkhole created by their own faulty plumbing, for all I care.

Pimlico always gets 100k and the Belmont at Saratoga is already sold out. They have nothing to do with the viewership ratings. Tracks are in the business of making money from pools and on track handle. How hard is that to comprehend? Churchill doesn't give a dime to NBC. It's more like the other way around.
