After finishing second in a slow Belmont to a Jerkins horse (Sheet guys would turn blue in the face arguing he bounced) and beating a bunch of sprinter pedigrees, he'd go to the sidelines again. Then he trains up to the Travers, which is his last race because, of course, he's done enough at that point.
