Or any...

I don't know the exact stats, but I would guess a minimum 10 TB to 1 SB on track deaths. It's probably much higher. Harness deaths just don't happen.

Prairie Meadows is no longer $2.20 minimum.

Interesting side note, when Prairie went to 2.10 they also switched to nickel breakage on all bets, so a win could pay 2.70 instead of 2.60. That only...

I pretty sure it was a joke, lol

IMO, when the dead heat came up, it was the stewards saying we don't have a photo so you both win.

I literally had shoe boxes full of money in 2009/2010. Crazy easy money. It all came to an end years later, but I was ready to slow down anyways.

Good times!

Anytime you cash a ticket that pays the minimum, 2.10 or 2.20 at some tracks, you run the risk of being cut off. The second and third favorites often are negative pay horses also....
