When you state that The horse never did anything impressive before
or since, (so stated in a previous post by you) I most certainly think
you are offering a "reflection" on the horse.
What IS impressive is that WC Freiheit won the Old Dominion 100 and THEN
jumped into a trailer, traveling across the breath and depth of this country in
the middle of summer time, arriving in the Sierras, vetted in and then won the
Western States 100.
MMS made it happen.
I am not offended by any of this...WC Freiheit can't be
contacted for comment, though.
I want to say this, the way our sport is structured and governed by
rule and regulation, as promulgated by the AERC (which is US), there was nothing
wrong with what Doctor Smith did, not that he needs someone like me to say
so.
