 They should have but i think they thought things would be better in September (wishful thinking we all hoped for)-- they didn't want to lose all those paying customers- but they lost them anyway

The new Derby gate will be used Sept 1 so horses can school in it and will run a race at  11/4 miles so gate crew and starter can get themselves set before the Derby.
