Track abbreviations

[CC]

I finally printed off Basil's race record. Is there a place online that lists the track abbreviations?

Or does anyone know MON, FAI, FH, MID, FAX, FX, GRM, MAL, ATL, PHA, MTH?? I could figure out a few: PIM=Pimlico, LRL=Laurel, DEL=Delaware park.

Also, what does 5UALW and 4USTK for race type mean?

Remember, Basil raced a bit over timber so I know that 5ALW was a timber race...just wondering what the actual letters meant!

Oh, and he raced 42 times from 1994 through 2001 with 1 win, 6 seconds, 6 thirds and earnings of $19,678. But that does not include his wins over non-sanctioned timber such as his wins in the Howard Co. Hunt Cup in both 1999 and 2000. His last race was actually in 2003 when he pulled up before the last jump.

Thanks!! ;D

ALW is an allowance race and STK should be a stakes race.

Guessing here that 5UALW is 5 and under allowance race and 4USTK is 4 & under stake. STK is standard abbreviation for stake race

5UALW would actually mean 5 year olds and up. races are written with the lowest age and then upwards.

Odd, our conditions are written for whatever and younger unless the horse is in non-winners or winners over a certain dollar amount. A maiden race or NW 2-3 and sometimes as high as NW 5-6 races life will be 5 and under. But hey, I got the STK and ALW part right!!!LOL

Thanks! The "5" would have to be for 5 yrs. and older as this horse did not start running over timber until he was five and the timber races were his only allowance and stakes races. All his flat races were claiming.
