Looks WEAK! Fact is - this antiquated rule on claiming w/ a 30 day req. to switch track is just plain stupid in Ohio. A lot of trainers race at N'field and the SW OH tracks. However, once the SW racers get in a weekly routine on the schedule ... well, it upsets the routine too much to switch out to N'Field, and - why? if your horse is any good, even mediocre, he's getting claimed the 1st week anyway at the usual purse amount * so, the introductory week also discourages anybody from slapping down the fee unless they're hoping to get a horse claimed.
