THEY USED TO PUT BLANKETS ON 'EM AT DUQUOIN BETWEEN TRIPS

 then they look all lathered and the fans think it looks sick.  it's taken a long time; BUT ! doesn't it just make sense to race world-class horses at optimum conditions, instead of wearing them out on a 95 degree day?  So, yeah *  two heats is one too many -

You have to keep them warm between heats

If you cool a horse out too much they will tie up
Water scrap then throw a blanket on
Some water ok

Would be fair though if the tracks gave the trainers some electrolytes though like pedialyte or something

  • Trigger: Kirby, tell the wife next Thursday you'll be back Monday afternoon.  Forget the "black Kettle" and cup sip on an umbrella drink watching the hot tan trim, some racing, great food, and beach air.  Teen evening temperature in Delaware, you can do better!  Me & You Babe!  ;D
