Any consideration for doing a special on the new double?  Maybe $5 for both races.....I know I would end up playing races I wouldn\'t normally consider.

Tavasco: Steve Christ wrote an article about his low opinion of this new bet. I found it on today\'s DRF web site FYI.

kmart4503: The Crist article was good stuff in my opinion.

miff: The takeout is 20%(nyra normal take 18.5% on dd\'s) there\'s no pool size guarantee, What\'s the attraction? What genius thought this up? Only first day but players bet $26k, very weak.

Santa Anita failed to meet their $100k guaranteed late DD late pool yesterday by a bit.

Even after taking their sweet time loading the horses into the gate to squeeze every last penny into the pool.  It was like watching Gulfstream.

Boscar Obarra: I thought they might not even run the race if the pool didn\'t get close to the 100k. Slowest load in modern history.

P-Dub: Another example that people in charge don\'t have an effing clue.
