One Trainer’s Take on Slots

Trainer Tim Woolley has a few thoughts on the new Pennsylvania slots law: “Penn National, the home of cheap claimers, will soon be a mecca for small time trainers. Winning purses will be [worth] more than the claiming prices for which they are entered and the quality of horses will increase. If trainers and owners do not keep up with the new level of play they may sink into oblivion. Playing the game can be like playing the slots, if you don’t feed the machine you will not hit the jackpot.”
