got nothing to do with improving the breed. invasor injured the same ankle at two, and was given time to heal--as you could see, he came back good as new. of course an injury this time around--well, he'd be off til next year. they gave it a good run, but obviously this time around retirement is the answer.

Invasor, a world class CHAMPION! Wow, this does throw the division wide open. Will truly miss watching Invasor run, Kieran has got to be totally bummed at this point, thoughts out to him and his team. One of the best, i've ever seen, the sport will miss Invasor tons. Thanks for the thrills you provided fans all over the world.
