You seem to care when a horse starts racing because of you oft repeated maxim "TWO YEAR OLD RACING AT THIS TIME OF YEAR MEANS NOTHING.".

I merely pointed out to you that the two year old races this time of year can have TC implications and I pointed out to you that even without TC implications these races mean something to the people racing the horses and to the bettors that enjoy the races. That they might change in a month or so, or a that a better one might come along, who cares? That's all part of the handicapping analysis.

I did not make the statement you keep quoting, so I'm not going to comment on it.
