I wasn't saying it there, but I will say it here. Through yesterday, there have been 267 races at Belmont during the fall meet, with a total of 2,213 starters, for an average of 8.288 starters per race. For every 5 horse stakes race or off-the-turf event, there was a big full 12 horse field to make up for it.

Nice work! And the weather has wreaked havoc on the turf races. The other day on ATR Andy quoted an incredible number of races that have come off grass during the meet.
