You're insane. There are a reason guys like Russell Baze, Joe Bravo, Jeremy Rose, and others never are able to shine in the big spotlight on a consistent basis. It's one or a combination of riding skills, attitude, work ethic, etc. You think Rose enjoys grinding it out at LRL, PIM, and DEL? Or how about Baze at BM and GG? Yeah, I'm sure a thirtysomething Bravo loves MTH and MED over SAR and BEL. These guys aren't in Desormeaux's league and it's what separates the Baileys, Stevens, and McCarrons from guys who can dominate the small pond, but turn into chum when they hit the big time.
