I'm confused as to why black-type is so important to this horse. I thought we were in this to be a "fun" RACING stable, not to pursue black type. Black type only becomes important for breeding purposes - I bought into a racehorse to run in races and win.
Frankly, on paper, our horse was no better than 20-1 M/L in this race. Lots of horses in here who have conquered the N1X - we haven't. But, reality is, paper doesn't win a race - you've got to do it on the racetrack. Who knows how she would have handled this field as we can only speculate......
I like to race and win. I am not concerned with black type. Winning races will take care of everything else. Let's run and win some races and worry about the broodmare crap when we need to!!
