and it's funny that younger supposedly is better, because they learn the 'lastest stuff'....yeah, they learn it after the older and wiser figured it out for them TO learn!!

I don't know that much about raising a champion Thoroughbred racehorse because my barn has never raised one. We've raised Thoroughbred hunters by racehorse sires who also sire good hunters, but we have not raised Thoroughbred racehorses. I reckon both mature the same way though...
Yes, I should have kept my mouth shut. I apologize.
Let me explain my reasoning behind doctors. Each older and wiser individual usually figures out but a piece of the larger picture. Are the older individuals that figured out the individual pieces of the bigger picture for the younger doctors brillant? Absolutely. Are some of them better than some of the younger doctors? Absolutely. Is the older doctor more educated in all the new technologies and research than the younger doctor? Most of the time that isn't the case because the younger doctors (while going through school) are getting all the pieces combined together that the older doctors figured out individually. That is the one of the reasons why doctors are required to go to many CE lectures every year (different numbers depending on the state you practice in). To get lectured on some of the new technologies and research.
I go to a great young doctor who is also a friend of the family. She is in her lower 30s, and is the best GP that I have ever been to.
Horses' bones stop growing (a horse is fully grown) from 5-7 years of age depending on the individual. That is all I have left to say in this thread. We went off topic a bit anyway.
