Even if the High Tech procedure heels the bow, the scar tissue will inhibit full motion of the tenden. Most horses who come back after mending a bow never make it to the races. The training to get a horse back from a long layoff will take it's toll, and most likey bring back the orginal injury. Owners/trainer only wants to run in G1's. I don't think they will need to worry about this, and be forced to really do what's best for the horse.
