It's simply a function of field size generating more handle. They would rather have a full field of claimers going 5.5F on turf than an eight horse MSW race for 2YOs. And that's why the race was probably put over from Saturday to Sunday (when they had 11 entries), not a desire to bolster Sunday's card.
