I'd probably time it so that the BC would be his 6th race of the year. If the horse was a Grade III type of horse and not a BC type of horse then I would try to run the horse 9-10 times a year.
The biggest problem is that way too many with a G3 type horse are campaigning their horse like a BC type horse.
