Weight in Derby Preps (682 Views)

I've said this before but it really angers me everytime so I will say it again even though I have no skin in the game here

The fact that Tapiture, Conquest Titan and Strong Mandate are spotting 4 pds to the rest of the field in the Ark Derby is ridiculous

Those 4 pds are worth alot at that distance and the lengths that weight is worth could well determine who gets into the Derby and who doesn't which is wrong

No good

Churchill went to great lengths to determine the current point system to reward recency of form which I think was a great move overall, it needs to take the next step to fix the weight allowances in these final preps that determine most of the field
