I'm kinda surprised at you here Mike. Thought you would know that.
I realize when they are made for teh most part.
But if you watch some of them warming up you can see how sore they are. I see it every day, and most are allowed to enter the gate.
Standing in a stall in the morning, even being jogged a little doesnt always reveal how sore they are. You watch em trying warm up on a given day and you can see the limpers at times who have no business being on teh track.
