Not much...Look at that 1st race today at Belmont.I mean that's what you're gunna get with dirt racing(horses scratched,and a damn 4 horse field.) Actually Seeking the Glory has no shot to win,or place.That's a 54k purse.That's the money (that 54k) that comes from people betting.Now you tell me why we are paying 54k to see 3 horses compete? This is what they would have us go back to? No way.

Come on.. you know that saying anything negative about New York racing is strictly prohibited
Honestly though, it is great to be able to handicap a race at SA without always landing on the chalk or trying to force yourself to beat the chalk..
Big competitive fields = bigger chance to be rewarded well for being right.
