I would tell him fuhgedaboudit for now, because of the way the game is declining. Tell him to check back in a few years and see how things are. Santa Anita is now running $6250 claimers and $12.5 maiden claimers. Not long ago the only maiden claimers in So Cal were $50K and $32K. Accounting for inflation these races are no better than the $800 claimers they used to run at Caliente. The Strub has disappeared and the San Juan was won by a claiming horse a few years ago. Bring on those bottom level 4-1/2 furlong extravaganzas. I will get off the bleeping soap box now.
