Let's try something different.
What is one of the most annoying features of harness racing? With some exceptions,(last nights Truer as an example),it is boredom.
Sort out the field positions before the first turn,get out the pipe and teapot until the home turn and try to gather in leaders that have been ambling along at their leisure.
Distance points and dollars aside, consider this for ordinary meetings,
Mile races: First to the winning post first time,$500.
First to the 400 mark,$1000.
or, First to the winning post first time,$500.
First to the 600 mark,$500.
Coming from further back than fifth (min 8 strs) at the turn,$500.
Longer races,
First to the first turn,$500.
First to the mile peg,$500.
First to the 600 mark,$500.
Coming from further back than fifth (min 8 strs) at the turn,$1000.
Discuss.
