Biggest "Class" edge ever in an entry-level ALW race?

Yeah - if they gave an Eclipse Award for sharpest placement of a horse this season - his trainer would probably win it.

41K for a race you have to fall down to lose - with no risk of getting claimed... with a horse who had been running for a tag.

The Millionaire Naughty NewYorker is an N2X at PID. He's one Red Smith away from still having his entry level ALW condition. It would be AWESOME to see a millionaire with a dozen wins in an N1X.

A horse could sweep the Canadian Triple Crown - and still have its N1X here.

I bet him in that race, LOL.

The statebred rule applies in almost all jurisdictions, like in NY if a NYB runs through its statebred alw conditions it can still run in an N1X. The question by jurisdiction is whether if in an AOC if entered for the tag and wins it still is eligible for the allowance.

I thought it only applied per state to In-State state bred races.

For instance - In NY - could a horse who goes through his Cal Bred conditions - and wins Cal Bred Stakes run in an N1X at Belmont?

Do restricted races like the Sunshine Millions or Queen's Plate count against ALW conditions in places like NY or Cal?

No. Although in the case of the Sunshine Millions almost all the winners have already gone through conditions so it doesn't often apply. I do know that there was that maiden winner of the 3rd leg of the Canadian Triple Crown back entered in an N2X at Saratoga a year later... forgot the name though.

This horse is like your classic textbook PID horse for course:



* Never ran a Beyer higher than 42 on dirt - and gets smoked at Thistle.

* Turf breeding and lots of early speed <--- very key.

* Whenever he gets an inside draw or makes an easy lead - look out. He has wins at 16/1, 19/1, and 28/1 and a nose defeat at 9/1 under those conditions.

* Whenever he gets an outside draw or can't control the pace - he gets stomped.

Non-NY state-bred allowance wins do not count against ALW conditions in New York. For some reason, I believe that restricted stakes wins are treated differently, but not 100% sure.

I was just looking at the charts for PID. One heckuva pool they have there!!

pick 3 pool = between $518 - $1,107

pick 4 pool = $1,125

pick 6 pool = $158 ( carryover = $930 )

I can only imagine what the readership of the Erie Post/Times/Herald's Horse racing section is?


of course these are weekend numbers...weekdays HAVE to be more because not much action elsewhere

Yes - They handle almost nothing on Saturday.

Tuesday and Wed are the big days - Tuesdays especially - because TVG shows them.

PID is a big hit on Betfair for some odd reason. It's not uncommon to see 40 or 50K matched-up on a PID race. Probably the only track where Betfair action beats total handle.

Calzone, speaking of class edge did you happen to see the entry of Count On Buddy in the 5th on Wedn? Loses a 50k purse alw race by a nose and now comes back in a 12,500 claimer where he seems the best by 8 lengths or more. Listed at 2-1, I would guess more like 3/5
