Few of the good horses run even three weeks apart, much less two weeks. I think the TC should be spaced farther apart-not to make it "easier" for those competing, but to make it safer. Ride on Curlin bled in the Belmont. Barbaro broke his leg in the Preakness. I'll Have Another was injured the day before the Belmont and could not compete. Charismatic broke his leg in the Belmont after winning the first two legs of the TC. If you follow the TC you can name several horses who were injured competing in the TC. Almost every horse that runs in all three races is given time off after the TC to recuperate from the tremendous toll it takes on their body. Europe has a TC and the races are spaced much farther apart. Few horses have won it either.
