That's 5 years and 3 months.
The horse "Coastal Empire" is 11 years old.
Whatever happens in this race, I think it's wrong to bring
a horse back to racing after that much time off.

Why would you think that wrong ?...Just curious is all...
From my own opinion tho, some horses love to race, regardless of age... They were born and bred to do it...
Harness horses "must" retire when they are 14....There were many harness horses that were still winning races when they were forced to retire...
