A track vet I know said its not good for horses to race at 2, something about the bones and stinting growth.
Goes both ways.
But I get what you're saying about a big, long term investment and no potential payoff, and running in circles with cheap stuff...goes both ways.
The value of having a vet with a good focused eye...everyone knows about going to a higher % trainer. Rarely you see a lesser trainer claim / buy off a better trainer and see better results...it happens occasionally.
But patience and execution, 2 words that are antonyms but both needed.
I want to be successful.
I'm not worried about opportunities, there is always another.
Doesn't mean you want to miss one, juts feel comfortable and think it out.
The value of partnerships sharing - the decisions, windfall against mitigating the bad decisions and failure, loses.
I am rooting for you! Whichever option you take.
