The point of horseracing especially for the ultra-rich is to see who's horse is best and to test your horses limits. Since handicap racing has been all but eliminated in this country, it would be nice to see owners/trainers try to test thier horses by doing different things. .

I watched tons of race replays from the 90's last night (do I know how to have a good Saturday night or what?
) and it's so completely depressing how far we've fallen from this concept...
It's also a shame that this has completely destroyed the significance of races like the Pimlico Special etc.
