Under the current incarnation of the Eclipse awards:
Only about 3 or 4 trainers have any prayer of winning Only 3 or 4 breeders have a prayer of winning Only a handful of owners have a prayer of winning Less than 10 jockeys have a chance at winning A washed up baseball player from the 70's can win the award for apprentice jockey If you are an American turf horse you can only win if there is no European that shows You can have a worse year than your last and still win If you are a sprinter there is really only 1 race you need to win and now... If your fans browbeat the entire racing world and you embark on a yearlong publicity campaign (and a companion cupcake schedule), you too can win the biggest award |
