Good stat. My question is why does everyone copy- cat stuff that negatively impacts the sport. It is getting tiresome never seeing the top contenders run against each other. I'm in the Sightseek camp, make the 2 year old earnings count only 1/2 at most and weigh the earnings by Grading ( I, II, III) while they are at it.
