if the number of longer races has diminished then common sense dictates that HORSEMEN AND TRAINERS ARE NOT BREEDING AND TRAINING THEIR HORSES TOWARDS THOSE RACES AS MUCH AS THEY USED TO. SO: WHY WOULD THEY BE RUNNING THESE RACES A LOT FASTER????? JUST DOES NOT MAKE SENSE. AND THERE YOU GO AGAIN, POINTING TOWARDS A SINGLE TRACK SUPER AND A SINGLE TRACK SURFACE TO MAKE A CASE FOR EVERY HORSE AND EVERY TRACK IN THE COUNTRY. I am just pointing out that you need to get track superintendents all over the country to say that tracks are a lot slower than they used to be, or else the longer distance #'s that you give out today just don't jive with the ones you gave out ten, or even five years ago (unbridled getting a positive "4" for his derby run, and war emblem gets negative "0.5"??)
