I'm afraid I'm not in favor of Randy's translation.  Here in the east, we
do well to get 11 horses in lots of 100's.  With his translation I could
be fourth place in a 50 and get 150 points so long as I'm first LW and
there are 10 more, but I could WIN a 100 and only get 150 points, if
there weren't other lightweights behind me.  Looks like one more thing
that'll make people race 50's instead of compete in 100's.  Heck, the
difference in entry fees makes it hard enough to want to risk 100.
