By my calculations, that is an extra 21 million into the purses EACH YEAR. and they are separating based on total handle, which Arlington smokes all the other garbage

They are saying it could DOUBLE purses, that would mean maidens would be running for 56k, HELLO BETSY

This really does have a crazy effect, the Illinois program should get a huge boost from the breeding perspective, just off that.

Nine of the 2008 top 10 sires of IL-bred are dead or pensioned. Friendly Lover should be seeing some serious action.

People just go to KY now and breed there, and drop here....

Chris Block gets some good race mares, breeds them in KY to decent stallions, and then drops them in Illinois.

I would have thought that Fort Prado would be standing in Illinois but I guess not.....
