THe purse structure there is 2nd to none by far the best in North America especially now when the the US $1 and the Canadian $1 are virtually the same.

For those of you who are not that familiar about racing at Woodbine go to there web site and look at there condition book you will see purses are out of sight. why do you think Asmussen worked so hard to get stalls there he has 20 this year.

I think their joking around from a prior thread where someone else said it was irrelevant.

Actually it's a pretty funny thread, I think almost every Canadian horse gets named.

Thanks for clarifying this, ebcause I haven't been ouon for a few days and was about ready to start a rant! OOOOOOHHHH! I'm sure you're all shaking at that threat lol.

But anyway, just to add something else-
Woodbine has really good beetable fields in a lot of their races. Big fields on turf and poly, big prices, and they do only $2 wagers for exactas, tris, and supers, so the payouts can be pretty big. Y'all should get off your Belmont/Church/Holl-hood 6-horse field preferences for 2 seconds to try it, and you might find you'll like it

There was aboot as much value on Woodbine's sunday card as wed-sat combined at Belmont. I know it is an event day, but it made a fan out of me.
