I would welcome more sprints. I think Maywood had 6 furlong races. That was FUN.

16 horse fields going for 11/2 mile and 10 minutes between races. That many horses and a 11/2 race would cut down on drugs.

Yonkers already offers 7 or 8 dashes each program: a sprint to the quarter pole, then a single file 3/4 mile jog to the “finish” line led by the sprint winner.

  • Calhoun: Thx I'm leaning to the 5 there.  Those CD/GP full field races look the best on the page. 1/2 length from being a G3 winner.
