I wonder how much of these kinds are just owners getting bs'ed. if a 2yo is healthy and can compete at an acceptable level right away I find it hard to believe they would not try to race it all year. if a horse is so nutty that it cant figure out how to run in a straight line, how to run a turn without bolting, or how to come out of a starting gate, its prob not sound or just a complete mental case. Jim Mckay said Whirlaway did all those things, bolted to the outside fence and did a bunch of crazy stuff. they raced him a bunch at 2 and he won the triple crown.
