Not that it matters but here is the complete quote

Long Layoffs are a good thing! It shows that the connections think enough of the animal to turn him out at the farm or otherwise pay feed, board and vet bills to get the horse sound again. Generally, the 3rd race off a 200+ day layoff is the money run.

While he does mention about the 3rd race it doesn't state anything
about not playing long layoff horses first asking.

Just a difference on interpretation
