Answer:

it only comes in blue, red, white, and black. try a plumbing supply store.
There has been a lot of discussion about this. Most people seem to think that slots in club houses would do a lot to boost interest in the sport because a huge % of horse racing is handicapping. I'm not against it, and if it would draw more people to te track, it would be a plus. Horse racing gets a bad rap mostly from breakdowns, but people do not realize that only a very small percentage of horses are fatally injured. They see one race with a fatal breakdown and wallah, it sets a bad image for the whole sport. Truth is, the breakdown of Eight Belles during this years Kentucky Derby, is the only fatality in the history of the race. This sport certainly needs more media coverage. The Breeders Cup being televised on ABC, then switching to ESPN was not in good taste IMO. When the Superbowl comes around, it gets plenty of media attention well in advance. I wish they would give Horse racing the same respect.
