Wouldn\'t bet Secretariat off 3 months spacing at 10f!

Agree that he was a toss, but didn\'t Invasor win classic off a similar campaign at Churchill?

Mon,

Horses that did not race since August, like Tizway, are 1-for-20 in the Classic. App 70% of the last 16 Classic\'s have been won by horses that raced within a range of 4 weeks prior.

So much for the \"extra rest/spacing\" theory espoused by some Kool Aid drinking sheet readers.Each horse a separate entity with different bottom retention and recuperating powers.
