Title: Scioto Downs
Post by: LiveCover on June 16, 2015, 12:30:31 PM

What is the deal with Scioto writing no trots.  Last week there were only 8 out of the 72 races, 11%, that went postward.  To put this in perspective below is a list of other big tracks percentage of trots for the same week.

Harrah's - 27% (15/26)
Hoosier - 30% (21/69)
Pocono- 42% (24/56)
Northfield - 35% (21/60)
Meadows - 54% (25/54)

I also don't understand why they have not done any Ohio Sired mini series.  Hoosier is always doing Indiana sired mini series.  In Pennysylvania everything is PA preferred.  Ohio seems to prefer to let all the money leave the state.

Nothing changes at Scioto.   The money is the only thing that has changed and it still leaves the state. I would think they could fill some Ohio sired or owned  races by now.
