your oppoent let's say danzig, ran his last race in oct, told you he was going to call it quits and retire , but, you see him out there doing his daily work and not missing a beat all throughout the winter
would you really want to take him on with only 2 1/2 months of training , while he hasn't missed a beat since oct - who do you think would be better fit to run the race???? .................it's the same with horses , these are animals these are not machines with keys in them

Who am I running against, Danzig the horse, or Danzig the DT.com member?
If it is Danzig the horse....I'm pretty sure I'd lose.
If it is Danzig the DT member....I'm not sure. I've met her before and although she looked like she keeps in pretty good shape, I'd have the advantage of a longer stride......so.....it could go either way.
Listen, based on her race Saturday, I just don't think RA's fitness looked as dismal as you and others seem to believe. The reason I don't think that is becasue she ran a fast race. Was she short? Yeah probably, but not ridiculously so, and I don't see how that ensures that she won't be "ready" for the next start.
