Why should we have to dillute and re-tool our breeding to tailor it to a new surface? It is going to screw up the legacy and classic bloodlines of our industrys greats - wrecking tradition after tradition and screwing with our history and heritage.... 
I strongly disagree with you....I don't want our breed to change - the same way as I don't want 5'5" 160-pound guys excelling in football if the NFL were to hypothetically change their surface of playing field from grass or artificial turf to playing on cotton pillows, would you?
Maybe Lemon Drops Kid will be the leading sire on that crap and Storm Cat will become an after-thought...do you really want that to happen? |
Sorry but as a fan of horse racing and a handicapper, I am not worried about the future of the breeding lines what so ever.
Unless you have some sort of financial interest in the breeding industry, you should'nt give a rats ass about the breeding side of it.
