Why would you take the first book of keeneland out? Those are the most likely to be pampered. I have a hard time believing that the vast majority of OBS horses are hothoused.

There certainly arent 4000 keeneland horses or virtually any in the Oct sale taht are hothoused. The ones kept in the stall that sell in the Oct sale are just crippled.

And how do you hot house horses in training?
