I am not doubting the remarkable career of Peat Moss - - I'm saying that horses typically ran much more frequently and at longer distances back in the 70's and 80's.
I pulled my old program from 1981 Belmont Stakes day (June 6, 1981) -
1st 1 Mile Dirt
2nd 1 1/4 Mile ITC
3rd 6 F Dirt
4th 1 Mile WTC
5th 1 1/4 Mile ITC
6th 1 1/2 Mile WTC
7th 1 Mile Dirt
8th 1 1/2 Dirt (Won by Summing)
9th 7 F Dirt
