Powered by Parx Racing’s bolstered “fall festival” purses, the mid-Atlantic region recorded its busiest month of claiming activity in 2015 in September.  But those bolstered purses also led to a significant alteration in claiming patterns.

Overall, 283 horses changed hands via the claimbox in September, an 11 percent increase over August and 17 more than any previous month this year.  Those horses were worth a combined total of $2,971,750, which was nearly six percent higher than August’s comparable figure.  It was also the second highest monthly value, trailing only the more than $3.1 million in claims made in May.  The average value of $10,501 was off about 4.7 percent versus August.

The biggest change, however, was in where the claims were made.  While in most months, no track accounts for as much as 30 percent of the region’s total claims, in September a whopping 54 percent of all claims in the region were made at Parx Racing — by far the highest proportion of any track in any month this year.  A total of 153 horses were claimed at Parx in September, easily surpassing the previous high month by a single track — that being the 84 horses claimed at Parx in May.

Meanwhile, every other track in the region that operated for the majority of the month saw the number of claims made decline.  In August, the rest of the region’s tracks had 196 horses claimed; in September, they saw just 130 claims, a drop of about one-third.  Monmouth led the rest in September, with 38 claims, with Laurel (30) and Delaware (23) the only other tracks to exceed 20 claims in the month.  They were followed by Penn National (17), Charles Town (15), and Timonium (7).

The September claimbox report covers claiming activity at Parx Racing, Penn National, Monmouth Park, Delaware Park, Laurel Park, Timonium, and Charles Town Races.
