he never raced again after the belmont. i think they were prep'ing him for a fall campaign when he was injured and retired to stud.
his time of 1:59 4/5 would have been the fastest derby ever had secretariat not beaten him.
both sham and secretariat did that on a track that didn't produce any other track records that day, unlike the joke of a track the day monarchos also put up a 1:59 4/5.
