How does that change the fact that in 2009 the graded stakes earnings of the 20th horse were lower than they had ever been before? Under the current rules a horse with the earnings Mine That Bird had would be excluded each year, of course, with the exception of 2009.

My only point is that it I am against eliminating 2yr-old and synthetic earnings from consideration.

I am not, however, against replacing all synthetic tracks with dirt. It sounded like a good idea at the time. But it wasn't.
