And they should shorten the Juvenile races to 8f on 9f tracks, like they did at Hollywood the first year it was run. No need to stress immature joints by running around two turn so young.

Tiznow and Sakhee weren't based at BEL and they ran well at BEL...
I agree about the 2yo races, that's another reason AP should never have it, because of what happened to the 2yo's that came out of those races...SFF came back, but it took her awhile...
