Default Question about 2yr old racing

1) why dont more tracks set up allowance races for 2yr olds? it just seems odd to me that the horse wins msw then goes into a grade 1-2 race against a bunch of other horses in the same boat. just seems to me like it make more sense to bring the horse along slowly but hey im not a trainer.
2) if a 2 yr old runs a low beyer in his/her 1st start are they basically a non factor moving forward? Reason i ask is there is a horse named Medal Count that ran yesterday at Kee in the stakes for 2 yr olds that was taken off T and i saw his 1st race thought it was pretty good but it came back only a 50 then yesterday he finishes 5th in a race that he basically ran around getting blocked and running up on horses most of the way then when it came time to go really wasnt anything there. so long/short should i forget about this horse or give him another chance? if so, how many more chances do these horses get?
