We(family) have been breeding horse's for just on 90 year's or thereabouts and you could count on 2 hand's the number of 2yo's we have raced ourselves. From my immediate family Grandad, Dad and myself we have only raced 4 that i can remember. 2 of them never got any better as they got older time wise. We bred plenty of 2yo's that raced and won but we preferred to give them time to grow and mature.We would rather win a Derby as a late 3yo than a Gold Crown or Leeton Breeders Plate at 2yo. Some of our horses weren't even tried until late 3yo's or even 4yo. All were broken and gaited up as yearling's and some used as saddle horse's until being put in work, especially any that were a bit piggy.
