Not feeling your injuries is not necessarily healthy. All situations arent black or white. I agree healthy horses that slow down shouldnt be retired just because they lose a step. I have trouble believing he was a healthy horse and not a product of a healthy batch of whatever and lots a back class. He was recently on vet list and while this is anecdotal evidence of health or lack there of its has to be considered in light of the trainer and his lack of reputation.
