How to ruin a horse: Jamie Sanders Edition

[AeWingnut]

I was the fool that thought Teuflesberg could wire 'em in the Bluegrass Stakes. Lone speed running against the wind. Notice Great Hunter was right behind those slow fractions and he was just as tired as T. Were the track conditions the biggest reason for T quitting all by himself? Maybe they found a sponge up his nose after the race and just didn't mention it to anybody

Trainers love their horses and believe in them more than people standing on the outside looking in. Still, I got to wonder what is up with the turf race against older talk. I guess she is hoping the race comes up light. I mean there are so many graded stakes races that T could be looking at only 5 other horses.
