That's a bummer, I was looking forward to seeing him in NY. Glad it's not more serious though.

I wonder if Cal Chrome's connections (excluding Art) wished they stayed back home now that the "other" horse got hurt...no do-overs

Yeah, they must really be kicking themselves hard for failing to have the foresight that a horse they knew is faster than theirs would get injured and pulled up shortly after the gates opened.

"Shared Belief sustained a non-displaced fracture on the point of his right hip, his connections said Monday, and while the injury is not career-threatening, it’s uncertain whether he can make it back to the races this year."

i don't have statistics, but i feel like a lot of heavily favored well meant horses who have tried the classic for the big/easy money......have come out with injuries, or extended time off after the race...

not saying, just saying

Big mistake running there. As soon as they said they were going there, heads were being scratched everywhere. Couldn't someone have Tapit on their shoulder and said " bad idear"?
