What's next, arguing that (world class) track events should be held on dirt?  It might run something like this "man for centuries has been running on dirt, look at the 1st marathon as detailed by Homer, why run it, and other tracks events, on concrete and artificial surfaces?"
The BEYERITE nightmare: one of their FAST darlings looking SLOW on the POLY.
Of course, this is not to say that this filly isn't the real deal and that her connections are doing her a HUGE INJUSTICE by not running her against the best on WHATEVER surface. She's a ****in' horse, if she were out there being pursued by a predator, I'm sure she'd be able to navigate ANY surface. |
You are missing the point.she doesn't have to be a great poly star or grass star to be a star. You want a Poly champion great so do I let's announce that in 2010 we will have Poly BC Day then we can see a bunch of grass types do nicely. I am all for Poly day I just am not nor should anyone be ok with Poly being confused with Dirt. You want to think its a better test of a horse great.leave Rachel out she is a dirt horse. See ya at AP poly day 2010
