I think because so many trainers in the mid atlantic region train at off track sites like Fair Hill that they can scratch without much recourse from the tracks. Meaning that if you are stabled at the track (ie. track gives you stalls) you are more obligated to run for fear of losing stall space at the next meet. If you are not on track that is not a consideration.
