We'd say these people want to protect live horse racing in Fla. Tuesday we'll be in Tallahassee for 4pm @FLSenate committee hearing on SB 408, which would let Gulfstream Park keep gaming licenses w/o live racing. Help us #DefeatDecoupling. 📸Nicole Thomas/@coglianesephoto

Here's a great "Florida man" story! @TheTDN's @ronflatter, among things, spells out @markecasse's role in fight to #defeatdecoupling at @GulfstreamPark. But as Casse knows, one win rarely makes a champion. “We won the first round,” he said. “The problem is I think there’s about.
