What you do not think running in 1 1/2 mile turf stakes one week after running on a dead turf rail followed up by running in a G2 6f dirt race a month later with an intervening dirt route in between is an example of where the trainer did "not exactly spot him correctly?" Perhaps you have a point. The trainer, Jaime Mejia was 3/161 in 2016 going into that race. One might argue that at least some of that lack of success was from improperly spotting his horses. In some regards, Copingaway is a cool horse. Is he some throwback to a bygone era - he is now 17-2-3-4 on the year (and raced in the Florida Derby and other stakes) or is the trend to race horses much less something that is dictated by overall diminished "hardiness" of the breed?
