Does anyone else recall so many races being written with straight earnings, instead of combining earnings and TrackMaster Ratings for most races?
Feels like the combination of recent earnings *and* TRM (and to a lesser extent claiming tags) had been the norm for conditions over the last couple years.
So what is the rationale for so many earnings-only conditions, and could it lead to fewer Maine-based pacers and trotters returning to the Maine circuit after Plainridge ends its meet this week?
