Running at 2 and then through the classic trail at 3 didn't seem to hurt Gun Runner.. You know better than almost anyone that stressing young horses through training and racing is the best assurance of getting them to a sound, competitive maturity. But above all else, they're individuals and need to be treated as such. If that's the thinking Larry Best is applying, great. If he's trying to reinvent how horses are developed, he's likely going to be disappointed.
