I find it disappointing that a lot of fans and pundits have bought into the "party line" of 21st century training that less (racing) is more.

Joe Drape in today's NY Times wrote, "It not only would be prudent to rest Street Sense, but it could be profitable to use the Travers as a springboard to race against older horses in September and, finally, the $5 million Breeders’ Cup Classic in October at Monmouth Park in New Jersey."

Oy!

The horse has only raced four times this year! So it's now "prudent" to put him on the shelf for another 2-3 months?
