ego a part? probably...
i just don't see why he's going to offer his horse up as some sort of sacrifice for whatever it is he's trying to prove. that is what i have a problem with.

altho i'm disappointed that street sense skipped the race, i can't say that i'm surprised. i doubt anyone is. it's what this sport has become for the most part, which is a shame. but i don't get what roman is trying to accomplish here.
OK, that's fine, however, I immediately looked beyond the horse and looked at Roman's stated intentions.

This is outlandish.

Whatever Roman may be trying to accomplish -- running the horse, not running the horse -- is a fallacious arguement. It distracts from the real danger and real concerns -- his stated intentions.
