If you follow a horse's campaign you will notice that it comes back form a spell at a shorter distance than his last race and then builds up to it's capable distance. This is form related as the trainer and rightly so has said that the horse is not ready to run at a greater distance with competition, ie form. Trainer train a horse for a specific race, they enter into races to give the horse the required preparation to achieve that based on the horses current FORM |
