Just makes no sense.

Martin Pedroza has won a record 606 races at Fairplex Park, with 11 consecutive titles and 12 overall...


Flores' 338 Fairplex victories rank second all time. Flores led the standings six straight years, from 1989 through 1994.

Ok they are the 2 leading riders there ever. That justifies having a match race of two 35k claimers on a Friday afternoon? I just don't understand why they need to have a match race involving these 2 guys. You want to honor them, give them a day with a mug, t-shirt or bobblehead give away. But to have a match race on a card where they are averaging about 6 horses a race is nothing but adding insult to injury.

Martin is off his mounts today at DMR with a ''neck injury''.
