Very low standards.
And those are brutally difficult sequence of races they use.
The Pick 5's at Santa Anita, for instance, are the opening five races and offer a lot of smaller fields and sometimes non-competitive races.
Look at the last completed card at SA for instance, March 24th.
Race #1: 4 horse field, winner is 6/5
Race #2: 8 horse field, winner is 5/1
Race #3: 4 horse field, winner is 9/5
Race #4: 6 horse field, winner is 9/5
Race #5: 10 horse field, winner is 11/1
The pick 5 pays $6,331.80 for $2 ... or $1,582.95 for fifty cents.
Instead of five very shabby races... Gulfstream gives you mostly tough races with larger fields and invites people to stupidly spread.
