9/16 mile OPEN pace at Yonkers

[The Thorn]

That was easy and anticlimactic.  Leonidas had the lead first turn and bottomed them out.  Probably didn't take 3 starts off his life either.

9/16th of a mile is a complete Joke. Of many real harness gamblers that I've asked, they all want mile racing. The Harness Handicapper is
different than the Thoroughbred capper. Frasure tried this at Pompano if I remember correctly. Was a bad idea then and even worse on a 1/2
mile track. Get rid of it.

I don't agree with it on a half mile track but I think a 8 horse field, half mile dash on a mile track would be exciting. I could envision 4 in and 4 out turning for home.
