Lava Man and The Tin Man are still getting it done.

Your using 2 examples of horses that come around once or twice a decade these days. Back before all these "necessary medications" and before breeding became king, horses actually stuck around for a very long time and competed at very high levels, well into their 7,8 and 9 year old seasons.

Your slamming Funny Cide is totally unfair. Lava Man is on his way to becoming horse of the year. Tin Man just dominated a field of the best turf horses in America and their upcoming matchup will have every racing fan with a pulse on the edge of their seats. Funny Cide may not compete very well at the highest level, but kudos to the owners/trainers for keeping him on the track, even if it is for the sole reason that he lacks a pecker.
