Rail Talk Episode 142: Turfuffle
<p>This week on Rail Talk! Joe Bianca and Jon Green have yet another incomprehensible situation at a New York racetrack to react to, as the distance of a race at Saratoga is changed at the last minute, once again leaving bettors holding the bag. How did this happen? How do things like this keep happening? And how do we get NYRA, the jockeys and the horseplayers on the same page so they never happen again?<br>Plus, Paulick Report founder Ray Paulick joins the show from Del Mar to discuss the aforementioned mess at Saratoga, what he would fix as the czar of racing, what billionaires could do with their money to help the sport, California racing and much more. Joe and Jon also touch on the latest Paco Lopez suspension and the foolishness of running the Indiana Derby and Iowa Derby on the same day.<br>Don’t miss any Rail Talk content—make sure you’re the first to know when these candid conversations, which aren’t happening on any other racing media, are released.
