I thought the mile and a sixteenth races at Yonkers were a great idea but  if memory serves the horsemen seemed to not like them. Anything to make post posiiton less relevant would be a good idea.

Have to say the harness racing overseas is a lot more interesting to watch....although I can only imagine what would happen if we tried a circle start here lol.

Use slanted starting gate
Fine for opening holes(nobody gets parked anymore)
Give purse incentive to outside draws

Watch Northfield, they start moving at the quarter pole. These guys really compete!
