then they wonder why a good horse can't put three races together in 5 weeks. most of these horses have about zero foundation.(they hardly race and some don't even start at 2 yo) when a triple crown winner finally gets in the circle. it will be because hes a little better than the other garbage. last year we got lucky and there were a few good horses. this is starting to look like the year before with big brown and 19 other clunkers. hopefully, i'm wrong!
