What a hard to bunch to please....you bitch when the top horses retire early and than you question the validity of the news that a filly who was sold at auction was actually bought to race instead of breed.

Only the enemies of racing, Godolphin, would needlessly retire a healthy filly at the end of her 3YO season for breeding purposes. It'll be far bigger news when a talented, and male, winner of a TC race stays racing. I'll probably be living on an overpopulated Mars by that time....but feel free to give me a call.

I'm glad you clarified what is news and what is not.

Next time I'll contact you prior to developing any sort of opinion over the return of a horse.

I wasn't giving you crap about your post. I'm just surprised it was considered a story by the DRF, that is all.
