Why was there a $20k race on the program at Mildura tonight?!

Trainers and drivers were notching up doubles (or trebles) all over the place at Mildura tonight
Leading trainer by prizemoney for the last 12mths, Andrew Vozlic must wonder about the invasion as from 7 runners, the best he could do was 1 third

R6 at Mildura tonight has me baffled
The race conditions include:
Restricted to horses which have not won any race with advertised stakemoney of $15,000 or more which have had at least 5 race starts at Mildura, Ouyen and Swan Hill since 30 March 2020 inclusive.
Now l like the idea of rewarding horses that have patronized the region but why should this race be worth $15k?
We are 'granting' a $15k win to a horse that has not been good enough to earn it under normal circumstances

Once again I have been told how good the Cup Carnival was
Post Cramp days the new committee has done wonders up there
The local newspaper was full of harness racing!
It was a pity that due to Covid they were limited to 1,000 on track
