I suppose if they wanted to try -- they could write a $7,500 non-time restricted starter alw race -- and offer weight breaks down to horses who've started for less before.
Make the purse 50K. Get horses who've started for 5K a good weight break via the conditions. Ask the connections which distance they want the race at (probably 8fs) and you'd possibly have him there for it...even though it's doubtful he'd be able to win such a race.
I suppose it could spice up a weekday card and make for a fun betting race... but I don't exactly think getting RR to race in NY is high on the priority list yet.
