MUCKA SINGH’S YEAR END AS THE OVAL TURNS REVIEW
ACE CASINO AIRPORT’S bevy of food deals to attract north Calgary casino patrons will certainly put a huge dent in Century Downs revenue. They are the hra breadwinner with 14 million contribution to 9 million for century mile. The $10 dim sum Saturday and Sunday brunch from 10 am to 2pm may be a marketing loss leader; however as quickly as you fill our belly your pockets will be emptying at faster rate.
Remember when Century Casino Belevedre opened in 2006 that Northlands HRA racino contribution went from 24.8 mil/2006 to 18.5 mil/2010, a drop of 6.3 million or 25% !! Century next financial qtr report cones out march 6/2023 ,ouch.
Highlights of the year should be incredible 1.9 million bet on derby day, Robertino presence and influx of Hastings park stake winners was beneficial.
Dawn Lupul return to Alberta racing scene will add some credibility as she can run circles around the Undertaker even wearing gum boots.
Silent Mike did touch on the topic of losing veteran trainers, either through retiring or going to the sky pasture. Dale Saunders exits with 2177 wins and career earnings of 17.5 million. His picture was so bad in racing forum, that I remarked that it looked like he had just out of Bowden institute the first time I meet him in 1987, the paddock bar crowd quickly corrected me.
Veteran trainers accomplishments that are winding down operations or left
Red Smith 6 head, 2649 wins, congrats on passing 20 million earnings this yr
Lovely Joan Petrowski 26 head,1149 wins and 11.1 mil career earnings
Greg Tracy 81 head,1.02 mil earnings this yr,1693 wins and 18.8 mil earnings

Congratulations to Harold Santa Haining for the Santa versus Grinch harness race to save Xmas. Colleen and Harold have given more than have received in gratitude, for their unselfish kindness for decades in Alberta
