I can't support changing it...and here's why:
we seem to change the standards in this country to fit the situation. I despise that.
Secondly, if athletes (horse) are indeed bigger and faster, doesn't that go against the argument to make it easier/more convenient?
Who's in the leadership in championing this? and while we're at it, could we change the entrance requirements at Harvard? Notre Dame? Yale? Stanford?
The triple crown means something...just because no one won it for a while doesn't mean we should change the standards just so one can.
