I hadn't read that. I think it's an interesting attempt. I don't know if it will work but at least it's trying something. I'm trying to think back to 1990. Didn't Arlington offer some kind of increase to the purse of the race they were trying to get Sunday Silence and Easy Goer too and because of the extra purse money, they ended up getting a couple of others that otherwise weren't considering the race? Anyone remember how that situation went?
