I understand that times change, and so do the public's interests. Many of horse racing's challenges are probably the result of those changing times. But some problems are within the industry's control, and it just doesn't seem like anyone is trying anything innovative to change the trajectory of the sport. Take small fields, for example. Part of the issue is that too many horses are concentrated in too few barns. If a trainer has 10 horses eligible for the same condition, they'll likely enter only one or two. That naturally limits field size. I wonder if there could be purse bonuses or other incentives for smaller trainers with fewer horses in their barn. I'm not sure exactly how it would be structured or monitored, but it seems feasible. The industry needs to give owners a reason to spread horses around instead of concentrating them with a handful of mega-barns. Otherwise, we'll continue to get more of the same.

Opening day at Aqueduct in 1894 @andyserling
No one more deserving. Winner of the final race at AQU.
14 entered in race 1 at Mnr tonight. 9 scratches leaving a 5 horse field. Unreal.
@Hinesite @FanDuel_Racing @ToddTTV @ChristinaBlackr @icecoldexacta @SJBray @CalebFDTV @TVsMichaelJoyce @ashley_mailloux @FrankLyonsG @ScottFDTV Well done Sarge. Wishing you the best moving forward.
2 Baffert's, 2 Sadler's and 2 Manella's. Not good.
@CBYTrackFlack @CanterburyPark There was a 12-page recap/report in the Star Trib on June 27, 1985. 12 pages devoted to horse racing.
@GhostofSwiftH Not sure who owns the horse but some horse owners wouldn't have their life changed one iota from a $2M sale of a horse. Must be nice to be them. I don't know if that is the case with this horse.
@loriluvsracing That was 53 years ago. The racing landscape, and the worl for that matter, was a much different place.
As the negative headlines continue to pile up for horse racing (TVG shutting down, Aqueduct ending) it got me thinking: when was the last time the industry had a genuinely positive milestone? I'm old enough to remember when racetracks were being built, not torn down. I honestly can't remember the last new track that opened or the last development that felt like a meaningful step forward. Can anyone point to the last true win for the industry? It seems like for years the negatives have been piling up without anything offsetting it.
@itsJohnRocker Right after Thanksgiving last year.
