$3,200 claimers at GG

[Southieboy]

Starting Thursday Golden Gate will be carding races with a new low $3,200 claiming level with a $7,000 purse, the lowest level was previously $4,000. I know the quality of racing at Golden Gate is not much, but has it gotten this bad? I come from a place that is notorious for cheap racing (Suffolk) but do not recall that level around here in a long time (probably the mid 90's).

Full fields, plenty to bet on to make a buck.
