I think the card will include a total of 7 stakes, all of which will have purses of $100,000 or more. In addition to the Pegasus, there will be the G3 Hurricane Bertie, G3 La Prevoyante, G3 W.L. McKnight, and the ungraded Gulfstream Park Turf Sprint, Ladies Turf Sprint and Poseidon. Should be a strong card.

I'm all for giving your suggestion a try, even though it has the effect of taking the choice away from this week's points winner. I know that was not your intent and have a hunch that the Pegasus card would have been anyone's first choice.

In that case, I think it's very worthy of the same status as the Triple Crown races. I'm sure we'll some top horses, owners, trainers and jocks throughout the day.

Thoughts from others, please! Sorry folks for the misspelling of PEGASUS. And the e's not even close to the a on the keyboard.

I cannot imagine any of our players not wanting to play the PEGASUS card

I get what you are saying. However, the same could be said on Travers weekend or any other really important stakes weekend. Some weekends are just kind of automatic due to specific stakes races being run, right? Although, someone like me could be a stinker and say, let's play Del Mar and add the Travers. ROFL

I like the idea of doubling the ROI money and the overall points for the Pegasus though!
