	Oaklawn Jockey Club - First Timers: The Races
		The main difference between an overnight stakes race and a stakes race is the amount of fees a trainer entering his horse in the race pays to compete.
		Any horse entered in a claiming race is subject to purchase, for the amount for which the horse is entered, by any owner who has started a horse at that particular race meeting.
		Races at Oaklawn are scheduled at distances from 5 1/2 furlongs to 1 3/4 miles, which means a race could run anywhere from just over a minute to around three minutes.

		Horse racing would be awfully boring, and practically unbettable if in every race, one horse is so dominant over the rest of the field that he goes off at 1/5 odds, wins, and pays $2.40.

		For most stakes races, a horse has to be nominated (pay a fee to become eligible) a month or two before the date it's scheduled to run.

	Nursery Races, Handicap Races for 2yo Horses (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		To qualify for this type of race a 2yo must have had at least 3 runs or won its first or second race.
		Some punters avoid these races because they just seem too hard, but bookies have the same problem too and offer odds slightly better than other handicap races.
		There can only be one reason why these races are so popular and that is so that trainers can disguise form and prepare a horse to have a low handicap mark during its 3yo season.
