By the way, even if horses had no value for breeding they would still be handled pretty much the same way. Look at horse like The Tin Man. He's a gelding so he has can't be bred. Do you seem him running every 3 weeks? Of course not. Even with a gelding like him, the connections will get the most money out him by spacing his races properly and only running in the big races. That's the best way to make the most money. By spacing his races properly, he is always relatively fresh and he always fires. Do you guys think he would be winning race after race if they ran him every 3 weeks? If you do, then you have a lot to learn.
