Again, horses are not in charge of their own destiny and thus, comparing horse-centered events to human is completely pointless, ESPECIALLY team sports. And the TC is completely a construct, and each race is important in and of itself. They do not have to depend upon the others. It is the other way around.
Money and the horse’s health drive where they go. You will never make someone put their horse in jeopardy, or their budget, just to make races you wish they would attempt.
the point that I was making was the rest players and horses need to compete that is all, and if you do not understand my point then you missed it on purpose.....
