The fields shortened each week in the Presidential series, but wagering handle grew, culminating in $389,517 bet on Saturday's final.



The first leg, held at the Meadowlands Jan. 14, started a field of 10 but generated a handle of $234,870. Total handle for the night was a little over $3.2 million.



The second leg, held Jan. 21, sent 11 pacers postward with a total handle of $321,535. That night saw $4.2 million in total action.



The Jan. 28 final field was a short one with only seven starters, but handle was $60,000 more than the previous week. Total handle that night was almost $4.6 million.
