it's just a shame (to me) that this horse had to be gone so long between the bcc and his four year old debut.

i guess one way to look at it is that there used to be a 'season' to racing. everyone stopped in the fall, no racing in winter, and then everyone started back in the spring. now there's racing all year thru--which is good for fans, but not so good for horses.

but is it really and truly too much to ask that a horse run more than a few times a year? i guess for some it is.

yeah, hoy may not be earned in the first half of the year, but i don't think it should be earned exclusively in the second half either.
