Lots of trackgoers were upset that Monday was a dark day, it killed the "long weekend" that they'd enjoyed in the past. Folks were very vocal about it, rental owners too. NYRA might listen. Also heard inside scuttlebutt about 46-50 days of racing next year, and five-day week is here to stay. Always expected 4th of July-to-Labor Day once the expansion started, don't really like it but the economics make sense for many involved.

Saratoga thinking of Tues and Weds off next year. Do you have a link/source? Tom, we heard some other rumors during our stay, basically back to 6 days, although not next year. How sure are you about 5-days being here for good? From what we heard a dark Wednesday probably won’t help rental owners. It’d just shift the days rented.
