I agree and I also believe this will be the death of horse racing. To have a sensational horse ran 8 times TOPS is a travesty. One of the great things about super horses of yesteryear was how many...

Very interesting and passionate opinions here.

Big Brown is a very talented colt. There is little doubt in that. However, he is trained and owned by people that make my skin crawl.
