It's just crazy that a lot of the races only allow less than 10 horses in the gate. It must be a narrow track. If they ran the Derby there they'd have to run in 3 rows. It's kind of bizarre that the conditions limit the entrants to 14 horses and that there are so many ae's

I spilled my coffee while reading your post. Trying to visualize how the last two rows would get through the starting gate.


EDIT: Now you've got me going - would they have to have a qualifying session ala the Indy 500 to determine who gets to start in the first row?
