For your information, we have made a change to the manner in which purses are distributed. This change will leave owners in a better position than the previous method did.

Starting with races on February 11th, only the net amount paid to owners will be held until purse money is released, as opposed to the gross amount. For example, under the old method, if an owner won a race where their share was $10,000, the entire $10,000 would be held, but the $1,000 would automatically have been paid to the jockey. That $1,000 would have to be paid out of the owner's previous winnings and only recouped after the purse money was released. It would leave the owner's account short money until the purse was ultimately released.

Under the new method, an owner winning $10,000 will only have $9,000 of this held for him. The jock will still be paid the $1,000, but the owner will not have to front this money out of previous winnings. Once the purse is released, the owner would have the $9,000 credited to their account. Not fronting the money out of prior earnings effectively gives the owner free use of that $1,000 between the time the race is run and the time the purse is released.

We felt this was much fairer to the horsemen and paid InCompass the programming fees to get this changed.
