What I'm saying is that if O'Neill and Reddam got together and concluded that the horse could have run in the Belmont but that long term, it wasn't in his best interests, I wish they would have run him because I don't think they had a long term racing interest to protect.
But they had a horse to protect. A horse that has to live another two decades with what racing does to his legs. They chose Horse. Not Money, not Legend.

Kudos to them
