Default Wanna know what is wrong with this game? (UPDATE: Good luck Gondorf!)

Here is one thing specific to Arlington Park. I was just at the Racing Office as we entered Gondorf today in a MSW on the lawn.

They passed on this race, which had 10 horses in it, and another 'higher purse' race with 10 horses in it, to use 2 races that had FOUR horses in there, saying they will use it with 6.

Cherish every start you can get, because even when your horse is doing good, you enter the horse, the race gets a FULL FIELD, they still won't use the f'n race.

Handle for a 6 horse race just has to be more then a 10 horse race? Handle is how racetracks make money right?

LOL

Did they bring it back as an extra? Maybe they think they will have a hard time filling the card tomorrow so they need to keep a 10 horse field race to use tomorrow.

They have a hard time every day. It was brought back, for the 2nd day in a row.

Call me crazy, but a racing office is not going to ditch a 10-horse field on turf unless they have a good reason to do so.
