Buried at the end of this story is this:
"In addition to the purse increase, Porter and trainer Larry Jones found out that the weight assignment for the New Orleans Ladies would be more advantageous than they were orginally told."


I have no problem with tracks upping purses or using that type of incentive to attract big names but moving the date of the race or changing weight assignments seem like stretching the bounds of integrity.
Mervin Muniz would be proud.
