Many moons ago at Trinity Meadows there was a trainer named Weaver (I think?) who used to do this. He did it with a stakes caliber horse and the horse won both races. I can't say I've seen it done ever since save Golden Man, so perhaps this will give Rick Dutrow something extra to shoot at.

And Golden Man finished third and then second in grade three races at 8.5f.

An interesting sidebar to this will be the medication issue.

Perhaps it will be lost on the CHRB, and they won't even bother to monitor it, but essentially, Lethal Heat will have to run the 2nd race without the benefit of a 24 hr prerace treatment.

The Distaff will be the last BC race Friday, sometime in the afternoon, while the Turf Sprint will be early in the card Saturday.

As I understand it, the prerace treatment is 24hr prior to post time (in fact, some mules were scratched at Pomona this past meet for getting treated 23 hours out by mistake), so the timeframe doesn't allow for a 24hr treatment to be administered legally.

Golden Man was a product of whatever Dutrow was up to then.and he raced like 30 times after making a fair amount of money.

Isn't he going to bred the mare anyway this winter. If so who cares she will have 20 years to recover. While I do get the need to do what he is doing, its not like the end of the world.

How old is Golden Man now? I think he was at least 5 when he did those 3 in 10 days.
p.s.- I thought this thread was a joke when I saw the title yesterday. Whoops.
