Yeah, I guess it's too much to anticipate the horse could make both races with only 3 weeks in-between. Too traditional I suppose.
It's hilarious, I was reading an old Sports Illustrated article about the 1987 3yo crop. Mack Miller and Shug McGaughey are quoted griping about the Breeders' Cup being scheduled for late November that year and how difficult it would be to wait 6 weeks between starts.
