Are Claimers on the WA Agenda?

Another Ayjay, pretty much uncompetitive in WA, placed 2nd in a claimer in SA today. Smackwater Jack also now domiciled over there. Are there any plans or thoughts to revive Claimers within the new handicap system and if so, what might the conditions look like? As I read things, it may be an opportunity to keep horses within the WA horse population and keep them racing. The exodus to the USA of the likes of Lady Del A Renta, Luis Alberto etc is a different issue...but claimers may offer something to owners of battling horses if the conditions were structured correctly, they seem to work over East.....or maybe I continue to" live in the past".

Ian Gurney had the horse he claimed - won a stack of money
What ive noticed with claimers - every now and again - there will be a horse in a claimer way under the price its worth - the connections are probably saying we are a certainty to win the race - and theve got their fingers crossed it wont be claimed - but it is their to be claimed

2k to 12k - with pref draw - cheapies off the front
But the most expensive horse Remember Joe in at 12k - and probably with the best forms - 3 recents 2nds and won a race a couple of months back - and Betfair have got it equal fave at $3.50 but it is only 1st emergency
I wonder why its only an emergency
