Right, so why the question if it isn't physical. Ten days isn't a punishment. I understand there aren't many horses these days, but if you don't punish those that abuse this, it will never get better. Tracks would be way better off cutting racing days than running these anemic fields. Of course, horsemen will fight this tooth and nail because they like short fields no matter how bad they are long term.
