Improvements to the Big A experience include installation of hundreds of new HD televisions, and new HD video boards across the property; installation of Trakus technology for horseplayers; installation of new, airport-style seating, the opening of a new horsemen's lounge and installation of vibrant, equine-themed urban murals throughout the grandstand and clubhouse.
