So this was known on Friday....Wonder if the people who bet the horse in Pool 3 of the wager would have liked to have known that.

Better now than in two weeks. He should be fine.

Chuck probably can fill in more but four weeks out seems like enough time to me.

Maybe Chuck can weigh in, but depending on the severity, can they not just patch it these days and it will be good as new. Going quite aways back I remember Touch Gold having a quarter crack or infact tearing off part of his hoof after the Preakness but it was easily repaired with fibreglass in time for the Belmont.
