I say that if a trainer doesn't know after a couple of 8f races whether or not he's got a horse that should be able to handle 10f, he's not a trainer that I would want to work with.
your ability to change subjects and direction makes me dizzy...
i surrender.

my guess on the trainer comment is that there are not many of them that would want to work with you either. i would recommend you get your license and start putting your theories to the test.
