Thanks Don. I live 10 mins from Bel & 25 mins from Aqu. I started out only playing NYRA tracks[ believing it was the best racing in the country which was true in the 80s,90s and early 2000s] Now I rarely look at them. The quality of racing has been in decline [and with the exception of graded races] many of the trks once considered level 2 are now[IMHO] pretty much on par with them at most claiming prices an lower level Alw races. I started noticing this whem trainers like Charkie Baker and the Engleharts starting coming down from FL the winter and would win Then trns like Ben Perkins and Butch Reid would ship from NJ & PA and win. In recent years several Parx trns[Reid, Preciado, Ness] have come in on and won lower level stakes This is the reason I started playing Parx, Mth, Del, and the MD trks. I found on big days like these you can make some pretty nice scores at these trks while avoiding the alleged main attractions
