Dave Elliott, Director of Racing
for Cal Expo said, “With our current horse population not quite where we’d like
it to be, we felt that by racing two nights a weeks a week versus three, that
the increased field size would be a wagering advantage to our fans, and to our
simulcast partners who import our signal.
“The handle on our Friday and Saturday cards
show us that the fans are wagering on our product, and will continue to do so
with the knowledge that they are betting into good mutuel pools.”
