This is not a question of unconventional. This is overzealousness. Good luck to them.

and of course pletcher and winstar can afford to take the risk, the rewards (IF lucky enough to get any with this horse) would be astronomical.
but i doubt they could say with a straight face that they have the horses best interests in mind here. but at this time of year, with a promising three year old, who does?

and of course no surprise when i go to the pedigree page, he's by distorted humor. one start. one win. oh, a derby horse.
