@harnessracingNY Renaissance? 🤔 "Sport" is a joke and unbettable with low pools. nysfocus.com/2026/01/07/hor…

NY’s racing renaissance attracts enterprises from all over the country and globe to race at NY’s premier tracks. This drives tens of millions of dollars every year in revenue for NY from boarding & driving fees, vet & farrier services, grooming & trainer fees, travel, lodging, meals & more.

@FanDuel_Racing @parxracing @MattCTVG Parx is one track that should be on everyone's no fly list, especially with horrendous payouts like this.

Nice hit in the Pick 4 at @parxracing by @MattCTVG today! With a $188 winner in the first leg!!

@DRFWelsch Thanks Mike for the picks

First time starter Omaha Beach(6-1) runs to last couple of solid PM gate works and solid backing to win at first asking in GP 3 rd for trainer Ian Wilkes and jockey Javier Castellano.

@morley_racing Running on the used condom surface at Belmont in the future will surely help save and grow the game!

I am a NY racing person through and through but it appears that we do anything to cut costs and cancel cards. It is 34 degrees in New York, we have had 3 inches of snow. And yet we have cancelled racing. Absolutely farcical, it used to be that conditions like this were normal

@DRFGrening These "professionals" should be happy to be getting anything from the Video Lottery Terminal subsidies in NY. Sport is dying and this is their protest? 😂🤡🤡

Remainder of AQU Sunday card is going to be canceled. Jockeys refusing to ride over myriad differences with management.

@KennyMcPeek @JrManganiello @paulickreport Rudy is a butcher, we've known this for a long time!

HISA's notice relays that 15 horses in the trainer's care were placed on the vet's list, but received no lameness or diagnostic evaluation from an attending veterinarian. Three of those later died; four others appeared in the entries at Mountaineer: tinyurl.com/yapfw24x

Congrats @lmgriffjohnson, not that anyone cared last year when I owned 10% of Dornoch and was co new owner of the year with Stewie….but happy to pass the torch to a great kid and promoter of horse racing @lmgriffjohnson You guys sound like a bunch of old jaded assholes talking shit to a kid who won an award he didn’t even ask for. Wow wtf. I may be new to horse racing and I wasn’t gifted percentages in horses, but wake up! The way forward for this sport isn’t tearing people down for loving this industry, it’s promoting ownership and the experience that makes horse racing great. Don’t get me wrong, the CAWs are real. A handful of algorithm driven players dominate pools and screw up people’s odds while everyday bettors get squeezed out at the wire. CUT THEM OFF! The reality is we need more fans, and my belief is that happens through ownership. That’s my experience and why I started @IconRacingLFG . We need education, not insulation. Growth, not retraction. We need the next generation of owners, fans, and bettors not people turned off by sour experiences, bad odds at the wire and a bunch of dickheads that are allergic to an Industrial Revolution that doesn’t involve CAWS. I hear you @Repolestables and respect what you’ve done and continue to do in horse racing year in and year out. You aren’t wrong. I love competing against you and want you as an ally even though you’re from Queens, home of the @Mets. But we can’t have a kid like Griffin Johnson out here bringing energy, fun, and visibility to the sport feeling bad about his hustle. Who cares if he got gifted horse percentages. What was Kelce’s deal on #SwiftDelivery (could be wrong lol)? Gifting % is nothing new I started ICON Racing because it’s all about ownership, entertainment, and the experience of how great this sport is No one wants to get in if they feel like they can’t find or have no edge Horse racing: kill CAWs before CAWs kill you. Stop the hate, embrace and encourage positive change, encourage fractional ownership like @MyRacehorse and @IconRacingLFG end the late inning CAWs, or ride the sport into the fucking ground! And leave Griffin alone. He’s a good kid doing something positive for all of us and falling in love with an amazing sport. Respect the hustle and celebrate the honor! Y’all should be ashamed of yourselves. Congrats Griff and welcome to horse racing. You’d fit right in at @IconRacingLFG any day, we’d be lucky to have you. #1PercentOwnership100PercentOfTheFun #ICONRacing #LFG #HorseRacing #OwnershipExperience #NewOwners #freeswifthitter #fuckswifthitter #ihearhashtagsareforoldpeople

@barshoelife Good to see Diodoro back winning races at Keeneland as well! Tremendous horseman.

@AndrewMarchand An investigation that started under Biden. And Stephen A Smith saying this has to do with midterms... Full on clown show

On ESPN, Stephen A. says "more is coming" and correlates it to Trump. The clip will be a lot of spots shortly.

The New York online sports betting handle for September 2025 was $2.29 billion, according to data from the New York State Gaming Commission. Key details from the report include: Second-highest total: This was the state's second-highest monthly handle on record, just short of the $2.31 billion reported in January 2025. Monthly increase: The handle represented a strong 11.7% increase from August 2025, largely due to the start of the NFL and college football seasons. Revenue drop: Despite the high betting volume, gross gaming revenue (GGR) was lower than in September of the previous year. Operators took in $193.7 million in revenue, a decrease from $204.7 million in September 2024. Lower hold rate: The decline in revenue despite higher betting activity is explained by a lower-than-average win rate, or "hold," of 8.4%. No operator achieved a double-digit hold for the month. Market leaders: FanDuel and DraftKings continued to lead the market. DraftKings reported the highest handle at $870.6 million, while FanDuel generated the highest revenue at $77.6 million.

A treading water week for U.S. handle. @keenelandracing, @HSIndyRacing, @LaurelPark, @DelParkRacing, @FlGaming all great. @mtrgaming appears back to its regularly scheduled programming.

Handle down 20% at Aqueduct.

@Steve_Byk If you go to Canada or Ukraine, not as much of this weather!

@Pick4win Thanks for the scratches, now I can go to the ATM and load up on the play of the day.

@ShotTakingTime Thank you for the tremendous laugh! 😂

I had like a dozen things ahead of it in terms of ending racing but how great would it be if we found out that lead NYRA steward who dresses like an overweight gay pimp was betting through his 4th cousins account. I mean these decisions are making no sense with zero consistency.
