I know. I had to do a double take. This is going to be one heck of a race to bet and watch!

Grade 3 is only what it is now. It will get upgraded over time. 400k is real money.

I think its more about the connections wanting to see if their horses can handle the poly, for the purpose of deciding whether or not the BC is for them.

Ya this purse is sick. So is the BC and so many of these contenders are unproven on polytrack. I think a lot of people may have learned lessons seeing some very good dirt horses flop on the junk on BC Day, most notably Fabulous Strike. Try your horse here before shipping across the country to find out your horses cant take hold of the poly.

Should be a heck of a race, but I wish it was on dirt.

The stakes coordinator at PID is an occassional visitor to this site. He has done a great job. This race might have the best field of the weekend.
