Andy explained this "loophole" that NYRA has to fix. Otherwise you can kiss main track onlys goodbye. Doesnt really make any sense to declare this when you do what Biancone did. Barclay Tagg did this same thing at Saratoga with Auguri and it worked like a charm.

Entering Auguri was Robin Smullen's idea. Work out perfectly.
