Weight Is Big Factor In 250000 Hollywood Match Race
Inglewood California AP Fletcher Jones argues for 126 pound scale weights for a $250,000 two horse match race at Hollywood Park to favor the quality horses Typecast and Convenience. The race features Typecast at 120 pounds and Convenience at 121 with odds near 1 to 2 for Typecast and even money for Convenience. Jones contends weight parity would reflect true abilities and extend the mare's season while Lavin supports the existing 120 pound impost for both.
