No. I'e followed that devious white haired mind for a long time. He doesn't want to bring him back yet. Not in a race. He can't move 2 feet without a reporter, a blogger, or some total loon wanting the next exclusive . Yeah, he usually loves it, but the loons are very thick this time.
Arrogate blew up on him. He doesn't want that this time. Where is the B C this year? He will aim for that, probably 2 good races as preps, maybe one, depends on how the horse acts and reacts. To say not too much about that contentious crew of owners, who we seem to need score cards to keep track of. The ankle is to give him time to come up with a plausible explanation. In other words, "Gimme a break!".
