But on the other hand (further down south)
Gulfstream has a claimer...just a little bit bigger
$250,000...the biggest claiming tag I can remember!

Nickel claimers at Aqueduct. Unbelieveable. What's next?

I will admit that I prefer nickel claimers to the $15kN2L and $10kN2L garbage. At least the $5k horses have back class. The conditioned rats have no class.

There's nothing worse than $15k N2L's in new york. Awful.
