Northfield Park - Race 20

Scratch

A horse is a scratch when injury or other necessity causes it to be withdrawn from the race.

Minus Pool

A pari-mutuel pool – typically a show pool - where one horse is so heavily bet that after deductions there is not enough money left to cover the prescribed minimum on each bet.

Yielding

A rain-soaked turf condition often producing a slick or heavy course and slower finish times.
