Now their prequalifier has been watered down to the point you will be lucky to win $600 bucks and the end prize is a trip to the Finals in vegas with no other cash prize. Also, the format has been changed to a strict 10 race $2 WP bet which is a boring format. This format is for picking winners rather than making money.
This is not my favorite format either. But, it is certainly not a format for picking winners. One 25-1 horse will beat nine short priced winners. This format is all about making money.
