Race tight is what I think. Won’t be short. Make money while you can. Wish my horses raced that many times. Vet bill me away I don’t care. One start in 30 days not tight with a 500 dollar vet bill for a start not fun. No names mentioned Mr D

assuming the horse is sound and healthy  nothing wrong here
eliminates the need to train them , light jogging in between races
shortage of horses so go for it
come spring /summer a horse like this finds starts hard to come by

Exactly right.  The horse is sound.  Race him. That’s what the are bred to do.
