https://padlet.com/anna_vest/edasf75n0tv1/wish/330332011 University of Sydney researchers have addressed this issue in the most comprehensive study yet undertaken to determine whether the age at which thoroughbreds start their career has an effect on the length of their career.They found no detrimental effect on a horse's career if it started racing as a two-year-old, and that thoroughbred horses beginning their careers in Australia at younger ages were more likely to have longer careers than those starting their careers later in life.

UTC https://padlet.com/anna_vest/edasf75n0tv1/wish/332683030 The original King’s Plates were standardized races—all were for six-year-old horses carrying 168 pounds at 4-mile heats, a horse having to win two heats to be adjudged the winner. Beginning in 1751, five-year-olds carrying 140 pounds (63.5 kg) and four-year-olds carrying 126 pounds (57 kg) were admitted to the King’s Plates, and heats were reduced to 2 miles (3.2 km). Other racing for four-year-olds was well established by then, and a race for three-year-olds carrying 112 pounds (51 kg) in one 3-mile (4.8-km) heat was run in 1731. Heat racing for four-year-olds continued in the United States until the 1860s. By that time, heat racing had long since been overshadowed in Europe by dash racing, a “dash” being any race decided by only one heat, regardless of its distance. anna_vest https://padlet.com/anna_vest/edasf75n0tv1/wish/342360731 https://www.britannica.com/sports/horse-racing]]> 2019-03-18 12:52:04 UTC https://padlet.com/anna_vest/edasf75n0tv1/wish/342360731 https://www.thoroughbred-horse-racing.com/history-of-thoroughbred-horse-racing.html anna_vest https://padlet.com/anna_vest/edasf75n0tv1/wish/342374461 2019-03-18 13:15:57 UTC https://padlet.com/anna_vest/edasf75n0tv1/wish/342374461 https://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-racing/articles/105235/the-importance-of-racing-at-2 anna_vest https://padlet.com/anna_vest/edasf75n0tv1/wish/344798249 2019-03-25 13:11:47 UTC https://padlet.com/anna_vest/edasf75n0tv1/wish/344798249
