Pletcher said it best when he was speaking for the horsemen of the game. Why would you bother running your horse in the preakness if he totally got slaughtered in the derby. The derby is worth 2Mill on the other hand the Preakness and Belmont are worth 1 Mill. These races should be worth more I mean damn even the Delta Jackpot is worth 1 mill and it doesn't come up as tough. There is pleanty of other races to run in worth just as much if not more. The UAE derby is worth as much as the KY derby and the Flordia derby and Arkansas Derby is worth as much as the Preakness and Belmont they should improve the purses to keep the horsemen involved.
