Cannon is right. It's not like those conditioned claimers would be replaced by high value allowance races. The days of allowance horse running back in 2 weeks are long gone. They are managed like stakes horses and run about every 4-5 weeks, thus those conditions simply don't fill as often.
Even a couple of years ago, horses that broke their maidens in NYB MDCL on the inner went to Finger Lakes as soon as it opened. Now, they are filling cards at Belmont. Even in grass races and "better races" I see alot of horses with extensive winter campaigns.
