It would be far more advantageous if the 4 races were rained off of the turf. Generally, off the turf races are chalky events loaded with pure toss-outs.

It's great news for Gulfstream that these races will stay on the turf, but it makes the degree of difficulty to hit much higher. You're forced to spread more, unlike last year, where the races rained off made it possible to hit the thing numerous times.

Looking at this sequence, and with the minimum doubled to 20-cents, the goal has to be to just try and hit it once. Anyone attempting to have it multiple times better have either a massive budget or multiple singles they believe are near certain winners.

I agree. Wet dirt/off turf races may be chalky, but they are far more simple.
