If evidence exists -- as these emails seem to indicate -- proving that the NYRA leaders willingly refused to lower the takeouts, in spite of state law demanding that they do so...then this shines a different light on this entire takeout fiasco.
And this light allows us to get a better look at Mr. Hayward and Mr. Crist...who agreed to keep this matter "confidential"...and then were quick to report that the "oversight" was purely accidental, when it was later discovered by the state auditors.
And I had always thought that Steven Crist was a "real" horse racing journalist...
