    RE: [RC] Completion rate of Masters Series - Bob Morris


    Well, look at what happened in the Xcountry courses. They
    got worse and worse. I think that attracted people to watch
    to see who was going to bite the dirt next. Almost like the
    race car scene. People watch hoping for a crash to liven
    things up.
    
    But then the Endurance horse crash is not all that
    spectacular. But people are morbid.

    I think it it's your *only* horse, a horse that you
    conditioned yourself
    you feel the consequences more.  At the very least, you have
    to pay for
    another and wait for it to be ready to race...*but* if
    you've got a groom
    standing there with another one already saddled, and people
    all over the
    place conditioning *that* one's replacements.... I'll say it
    again just
    to aggravate them. The Olympic committee isn't going to want
    to defend
    that. Far easier to just sigh, say "this looks like a PR
    disaster" and
    walk away.
