That is insane, you win a 1.5 million purse, and then you feel like coming in two weeks to run for 30k.......

It has to be a special promotion or something, makes zero sense.....They have two other big races so they probably called this guy and said they would put a race together for him with 30k purse, and they are probably given him some appearance fees

what is crazy is that this 9th race is for 123k, but they only have like 2.5k in the win pool and 4800 in the exacta pool....

Not sure how harness purses work, but my guess is that it closely mirrors how Tbreds work, how can they give that out with that little within the pools
