They feel like that the horse needs more time to recuperate for safety reasons, for the horse's health and well-being, and also for performance reasons because they think the horse will run better. With more time in between races. It's a very familiar mantra right now. If the trainer were Todd Pletcher, we'd be seeing the same thing, in my opinion.

If it were Brad Cox, we'd be saying the same thing. It's going to happen more and more frequently in the future until such time as the Triple Crown races begin.

It's totally the calendar. Totally the calendar. But they're going to run him in the Belmont Stakes. And after the Belmont Stakes, they'll probably point him for the Travers. And after the Travers, they'll get another race and point him for the Breeders' Cup Classic. So he'll run more this year as a three-year-old. Yes, his value has improved after the Kentucky Derby.

But the Preakness is a classic. The Preakness is an American tradition in the sport. There is plenty of value to a horse in winning the Preakness States, even a horse that just won the Kentucky Derby. But they think it is counterproductive to bring him back in just two weeks. Look, back in the heyday of the Triple Crown, okay, in the 40s, 50s, 60s, there was no problem.

running these horses back in two weeks. As a matter of fact, there were a couple of Preakness winners, 1959 and 1960. They finished second in the Kentucky Derby. Then they come back two weeks later, and they win the Preakness with a race in between, with a race on Monday of Preakness week called the Preakness Prep.

So back then it was normal, for example, for horses, the one, two, three finishers in the Kentucky Derby to all come back and run in the Preakness. Sometimes one, two, three, four, five in the Derby would all come back and run in the Preakness. Now you almost never see that. And it's really cheapened. the Triple Crown as a whole, because that's the way horses are trained nowadays.

And that's why the schedule needs to be adjusted. And I think it will, not immediately, not next year, but maybe two or three years down the line. I think that's probably what you're going to see.

Yeah, that's going to open up a can of worms. What you're referring to, like the load management thing and the baseball innings pitched and things like that, that's the performance issue. And there's part of that going on in thoroughbred racing, right?
