Mike Harrington runs his good 2 year olds as much as he can. He may get 8 races out of them and then they are done. These horses never last. Most of these horse won't even be around as 3 year olds.

Unless someone does a scientific study of the question ... with mathematical rigor ... and no one will ... there can be no such certainty on either side.
