2 Days rest
I recall that some years ago, King Leatherbury ran a horse in Maryland on a Saturday afternoon, then sent him to Penn National to run at night on the same day. He finished third at Penn National that night. I also recall reading about a horse who once ran 5 straight days at the Ohio Fairs and won each day. Another horse named Cephalonian performed an incredible feat at Charles Town. I believe he won 17 races in a year, the most in the country that year. Some horses are extraordinary.
