Suffolk COO Robert O'Malley on the state of Massachusetts racing, past and present:
"I always remember the line from Dave Wilson, who was the racing writer with the old Record in Boston: 'Suffolk Downs is the only place where a Ph.D. from M.I.T. would chase a tattered bum across the apron asking, "What do you know?"'"
*
"There isn't the interest in the local product from day to day. There's more interest in out-of-town races."
