Where can I go to find the total handle for a specific day at a track?
Yesterday, with a big day at Arlington, Oaklawn is showing Delaware on one of just 4 big screens...the others Belmont, La Downs, and Mnmth (I think)...in any case, when I inquired why the hell DPR would take precedence over a Midwest Track, I was told overall handle was the determining factor.
How anyone would know in advance is a bit of a mystery, but whatever...then I\'m told that Pat Pope is the racing director at DP (unconfirmed), and also at Oaklawn.
Watching several dozen people huddle around the little screen while no one is watching DP is quite a sight.
