The funny thing was that back in the 90s we thought they weren't racing enough back then. Which was true, compared to the 70s (and earlier).

Now, of course, the problem is even more ridiculous--they've practically become Breyer horses (ashamed to admit I even know of the things--damn you, AOL broads of old).
