I just asked you questions Jim. I didn’t give my opinion on if it’s a good idea or not.

Logistically it could never happen. If you run the 1st at 11:30, it’d be impossible to run the 2nd 20 minutes later. By the time the race is run, made official, pictures taken, jocks get back to room, etc it wouldn’t leave them enough time to get back to paddock to get a leg up again.

Trainers and owners won’t want to run in these races as the horses running in them will be at a disadvantage. They won’t get a proper warm up or at least the same kind of warm up they are used to.

I get where you’re going with it…I just don’t see how it could work time wise.
