That is a very insightful answer, thank you!Laura Ferguson wrote: ↑1 month ago I'm going to answer your question with: it depends. How hard are the races you are entering the horse in? If your races are Pegasus/Saudi Cup/World Cup, for example, at some point your horse is going to need longer than two weeks between races, because the horse has been asked for maximum effort multiple times. If the horse has an easier spot/effort along the way, it is easier to keep to an every two week schedule

Re: Time Between Races
I was under the impression that the vet will just tell you your horse is fit to race...as in...will not get injured.
I didn't think that the vet was saying that the horse could still have some tiredness from racing, or a heavy racing/shipping schedule...so that the tiredness we weren't told about could be the difference between a horse winning a race or coming in 2nd or 3rd...or worse.
Not sure when/where/why I got that impression, but I seem to feel that it was during some conversation with The Steward in chat... many years ago.
