The idea is spot on, the value of the races is out in left field, IMO... some alteration to the point values of the races, and I think they have got it.
Also Baffert touched on something interesting about field sizes and post positions. Since they are moving the Derby to a point based system, then I believe that the high point earners should get choice of post position in the Derby gates, this will promote more participation in these races.
