(The 139.6m) The same stakes or slightly more as you suggest OR take plenty out to do other things with? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that we now have to wait and see what Thorougbreds get, and then how they allocate it. Stakes, info structure, whatever etc. Patiti 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
