I agree 100%. Unfortunately, the majority of people don't have the patience that it takes to run a sound horse. The bottom line is all they see, but to me, it would make more sense to be patient with a horse so that he could run sound and actually get more winnings.

well the saying is atleast what ive heard alot is that if your horse doesnt have some little issue atleast than him or her isnt running hard, but the shape some of these horses go out there to race in is absolutely ridiculous! a perfectly sound horse can go down at any time, all it takes is 1 bad step as well know but some of these connections really increase the chances of that happening
