- I love tracks with tree's along the backstretch on the infield, it's awesome trying to guess what the horses are doing.
- I love tracks that have a shakey cameraman, i know it's a big expense but you might want to cut a few purses and invest in some tripods.
- I love tracks that place their cameras about a mile away, and forget to explain to the cameraman how to use the zoom function.
- I love tracks with dirty old washed out saddlecloths and incorrect widgets, it's awesome thinking that you just scored a nice ticket only to find out you weren't even close.
For me, the betting table and the pool size of a track trumps the production value's mentioned above. In the end i'm playing to make money, not to be entertained with a glamorous show.
In my humble opinion, Woodbine has the best production team out there, i have a hard time finding fault with anything they do. As well, it's one of the few tracks that i actually listen to the track announcer, Dan Loiselle is the only announcer i can stomach next to Tom Durkin, everyone else is turned off, especially Fort Erie (he's awful). If they would upgrade to Hi-Def on a permanent basis then i would be in heaven, but that is only reserved for the big days.
Come to think of it, HPI's betting site sucks the big one, that needs a serious upgrade.
