I like this statement a lot. Trainer and owner don't see this horse as just a money-making machine.

It would be much better to have a month between the 3 races. At the same time, if a horse has been peaked for one particular race, he may not be in the same shape again in a month. Like any elite runner, they can't stay at the top of their form constantly. A few weeks can make a difference.
