That was an off the turf race on Travers Day, if I remember correctly, so the purse was jacked up because the field stayed big and it was inflated because of the date.
I'm not trying to rain on Monmouth's parade and I'd by absolutely lying if I said I'm not going to bet their races. However, I'm unconvinced that this new setup will be the panacea of Mth and NJ racing. They do have one of the best on-track handicappers, Brad Thomas, in the country. Anyone who hasn't played Monmouth regularly before and will be now should heed his opinions.
