Earnings as shown in DRF

Postby subrosa » Wed Apr 27, 2016 8:54 pm

Do the earnings shown for a horse in the Daily Racing Form include any state-bred enhancements to the purse in previous starts? In some races not all horses are running for the same amount of money so it seems the enhancement would not be reflected in the stats if a state-bred won.
Thanks.

Hi Subrosa,
Yes, all state bred purse enhancements are included in the horses total earnings in the DRF pp's. In the example below (a DRF chart, which reflects all monies earned by each runner in the race), the purse is $37,000. The winner would receive 60% of that purse, which is $22,200. Since the winner was a CA state bred and qualified for the CA owners bonus ,she received the additional $4,440 CA bonus money making her total earnings $26,640. That same amount (which includes the state bred enhancement) will be shown in Star of Munster's individual past performance earnings. TJ
