(and I am rooting for MTB in the race... big Chip fan )

From what I understand he only missed a couple of gallups, no serious works were scheduled.
He is scheduled to have his last 'serious' work tomorrow.
I guess this type of surgery is no big deal, you just have to keep on swelling and/or infection, if none then there is nothing to knocks the horse out for any specific time.

I too am rooting very hard for MTB, I think he's got a great shot here.
