Yet another player (three actually) that's bummed over the new prizes at the Dragon Track.

My young sons and I play, and while the 4 yr old mostly manages 4th place, the 7 yr old and I take 1st better than 9 times out of 10. For this, We'd hope to get a prize equal or better in value to the 50K DC we spent to race. Winning Cherry Road with a Flower Dragon (we've only been playing since April, so no Sakura  or Paper Dragons for us) takes more than niggling skill, and to be given 925 Dragon Treats is an insult. That prize is worth only about 17.5K in DC, assuming you grow Pumpermelons, the nearest means of getting 925 Dragon Treats. We'd expect a bonus of a minimum of 10% over the entry fee for placing 1st.

Thanks BFS, for  removing a lot of the rewards out of using the Dragon Track. It's bad enough now, that I'll no longer make strong recommendations for DragonVale to friends and family.

P.S. We've deliberately supported BFS financially, through an initial purchase of gems at the Market.
