one second, one third, three out of the money.

three came from Leo O'Brien, one from Dutrow and one from Contessa.

Leo O'Brien actually sent out horses after two days rest on consecutive days last winter. so in four days he got 4 starts from two horses.

What were the conditions, though?

Leo O'Brien and Allen Jerkens have been known to sprint a horse (assumingly as a glorified workout) in anticipation of a route race a couple of days later (Fourstars Allstar was a good example, I think he ran in the Laurel Dash and showed up a couple of days later in the International).

Its one thing to run a horse on short rest when the initial start could, at least on paper, be labeled as a "tune-up" and a whole other thing if a horse is meant to be all out in both races (which often times is not good for business).

Good points and thanks Jim.
