Gural To Battle Proposed Syracuse Track

Published: February 24, 2011 02:37 pm EST

In regard to the proposed Syracuse racino, fellow raceway owner Jeff Gural has gone on the record as saying, “I am clearly going to do everything I can to make sure it never happens.”

A report by The Observer-Dispatch explains that an $8 million expansion of Gural's nearby Vernon Downs began last August, and that the 'take' on the track's VLTs are up 13 per cent over the same period one year ago, but that the track still is not making money.

The article states that 25 per cent of Vernon's customer base is from the Syracuse area.
