Compare those purses to the Big A today. And I'm sure all his expenses were paid.

Yeah, but it's not like he's riding any monsters. Interesting move.

Why would you want to compare those purses to the purses at the Big A?

Garcia would be riding on FLA not NY, but all the more reason to compare purses. It's a day of group races with good purses and a chance to get a mount in races like the Sheema Classic ($5m) or the Duty Free ($5m) or the DWC at $6million.
