twoshoes,
I agree with you completely. Both the breed and the training are changing. I just think it is mistake to assume that it is all for the better/faster - especially at different distances.
Second, are we really sure we have better stock now?
Many of our better yearlings are exported to Europe, Japan, and elswhere to race. So are some of our better stallions.
I think it might also make sense to look at the foal counts. If they are declining or increasing that could have an impact on overall quality.
