    I have recently acquired a set of rechargable batteries that claim to hold 1000 times as much charge as a normal AA battery. will it actually charge the batteries to the same energy level 1000 time and then begin to store less as the batteries wear out or will the batteries be on a down hill slope, after the first use, that ends after 1000 charges, leaving them useless after that point ?

    Other than handicap races, weight-for-age events, and races run at set weights, are there any other types of horse race?
