Specific to Normanruth, where do you go with him? He almost ran in the Hashin but caught a minor issue, and he needs a route of ground. They do not write a 50nw2. Anything less he would get claimed and that isn't the goal.

It isn't like he is a 7.5k claimer and could be put until a 5k or 10k claimer. I get that. He is an allowance horse.
The guy entering 8 horses, as you said, is making an effort. I was trying to point out why are the races he's entering not going? Maybe brianspencer has a point saying that some barns are too "inactive".

The same can be said on the situation you describe with Normanruth. How does a first level allowance not fill?
