Back in the day, races were run in heats. They'd run, then have about and hour and run again. Then they would run a tie breaker if need be another hour later. Oh, and each heat was often as long as 4 miles.

I realize that in today's game, things like this are not done. But that doesn't mean that they can't be done and I don't think it makes the guy an idiot. He just thinks different. If Rachel had still been with her previous owner, we wouldn't have seen her do the magnificent things she's done. If Zenyatta was owned by Lukas, we would have seen her do differnent things. Different people have different ideas. I've seen two 2yos win the grade one Nunthorpe Stakes in Europe against older males. The first one I saw do it was Lyric Fantasy, a 2yo filly. The second one was Kingsgate Native, who was a maiden at the time. I don't want to hear about how it's grass racing and it's different. If any trainer here was to take a 2yo filly or a 2yo maiden and put them into the BC Turf Sprint, he'd be called an idiot.

I don't think she'll snap her leg, I'm just guessing that Lethal Heat might be tired.
But maybe she will show us what she is made of and run in the money in both races.

Shes solid, but I highly doubt she runs in the $ in either race.
