Call the men in white coats with the big Butterfly nets
The REAL insanity comes into play when by way of having initially & almost exlcusively bred our mares to juvenile (2yo & 3yo) performed US & CAN born sires that have raced over the mile from mobile starts & nothing else...we take the resultant progeny and beyond 2yrs we race them over ever increasing distances until such time as they're aged performers and we send them off from a standing start in totally jam packed fields & over absurd race distances up to, including and in some cases exceeding 2 miles. :confused::confused::confused::confused::confused: :confused::confused::confused:
For mine, this is the same as expecting a Golden Slipper winning colt to go on & win a Derby at 3 and a Melbourne Cup as an aged horse. Of course, nobody in their right mind expects that of the TB's. Why we expect the equivalent of our beloved Standardbreds is beyond me.
