A proposed project by businessman and thoroughbred breeder Armand Janjigian wants to bring horse racing to Central Massachusetts, if the state legalizes sports betting. The project, dubbed the Sturbridge Agricultural and Equestrian Center, would cost roughly $25 million and sit on 223 acres of land off Route 84 in Sturbridge. If built, it would be the second location in the state to watch horse racing, including Plainridge Park Casino in Plainville, which hosts harness racing.

    The sad reality is to see the state getting further revenues especially from this cash cow. More $$$ that will be squandered by the State House flim-flam Artists. More graft, more buddies and deadbeat relatives of politicians, administrators, and their ilk... A never-ending fiscal black hole in MA.

    If it's legal, the state gets revenue. If it's not, some other state will. This is pretty simple.
