I don't see it as disappointing. I don't really agree it's the easy road either. Sure the competition is easier, but he schools the competition he would see in Florida the other 9 months of the year. I think it's more difficult on the body to ride in NY through the winter than it is in Florida and the purses are pretty much the same at this point.
