What proof do we have that Bernardini isn't it for next year ,either? The Sheikh seems awfully proud of him (as with all homebreds) and is having a grand old time hearing about his wins(his son certainly got a kick out of watching him in the Travers) .......Being a sportsman, he'd want to watch his own homebred horse become truly great, wouldn't you think? I'm not saying Bernardini won't be retired, but I also don't see it as being anything close to a sure thing.
