Numbers are very important when it comes to value of position and merit of performance. If Invincible Spirit had won against 500 doos do you think it would have fetched 110,800 quid?? Naw it would never have been known to the general fancy, but it won against 20 0dd thousand doos and is world famous for doing so. There are many reasons why the split in the fancy is being perpetuated, and none of them relate to common sense!! So if that is in short supply the solution to the problem will not be addressed and there will be no reconciliation any time soon. Very disappointing state of affairs IMO.
