Why bring her back? If she won Horse of the Year last year, would she still be running tomorrow?

Probably not, so the answer to the question depends on who you ask. To most owners I would think it matters. I know what you mean about the HOY being wrapped up before the BCC and if they ran her in the Foster and won and continued a schedule that would be comparable to Quality Road and won the BCC the fans would get what they want and so would they.

They seem to be willing to take a chance that others will fail and they could simply pick up the remains in the BCC with a fresh horse.

Most likely not and that is what is wrong with her campain.

The Mosse's must think that if she goes undefeated and manages to win a 2ond Breeders Cup Classic that gets her HOY.
