When you pay $20,000 for nickle claimers, what deterrent is there to not run broken down sore horses for the big purse? Why would you care if your horse got claimed? You win a lot more than it's worth.
Aqu was having a lot of break downs that led to this rule.
At Aqu, would you rather play a field of 10 8K clainers ir a field of 5 25K claimers?
Probably not more than a beyer point or two difference anyways.
