Saturday Stakes


Assange

Recommended Posts

Just looking at fields for Saturday for Ellerslie and Otaki. Both similar mix of races but can anyone tell me why Ellerslie Stakes $30,000, $55,000 & $65,000 while Otaki $25,000, $40,000 & $50,000. I don't understand the funding differences.

Yes, Ellerslie put in an extra $5,000 of their own money per race. I don't really see the point myself. Not sure how many extra horses and how much extra turnover you get for a $55,000 race compared to a $50,000 race. Hardly seems cost effective.
