Ouija Board lame, scratched, retired...

There is a chance that Makybe Diva could have travelled the world and done the same things as Ouija Board but the fact is that she never has. When u want to talk about true world champions, these days u would be hard pressed to find any horse more deserving of that title than Ouija Board. Male or female. I'm bothered that she was retired. They said that she was examined and x-rayed and nothing out of the ordinary was showing up. I understand those that will say that she owes us nothing else but then the argument can be made that she's owed us nothing from the start. I would have loved to see her rested and brought back to continue dominating next year. I see no reason why she couldn't have. In this day and age though, we've already gotten to see much more than we are used to so for that, I am glad.

Is this the same King Glorious that posts over at the ThoroughbredNet forum?? You sounded a wee bit more pissed on that forum of her retirement than you do here. What's with the "conservative" approach here???
