And there were NO breakdowns at the BC unsafe surface either--and I am sure some of the trainers there were conservative as well, and chose to run ... .

Shireffs chose not to run on a sealed track--Wilkes did not ...

Was Wilke's horse first off a layoff of 7 months and first time over the track as well ???

Wilkes chose to run--conservative or not, and Shireffs for the aforementioned reasons did not .
