Title: Amateur Race 5 at Meadowlands 08/02/24 ?
Post by: makingit on August 02, 2024, 09:44:41 PM

Do all the horse entered have to meet the same conditions so the race is competitive?  I don't see any conditions listed such as N/W of $ or $15K Claimers ?  And, are the drivers assigned or selected by the trainer? This race seemed to be a 8 length runaway.

That’s a good question. I think the race secretary is more interested in the condition of the drivers such as NW of 1 race in their life time and no DUI arrests.

I may be wrong but I thought that drivers had to finish with both feet in the stirrups.  Help!
