I have one word....NOOOOOOO. I REALLY HATE it when we lose the ones that have so much upside. This horse had an extreme amount of potential.

At this point they all have upside. Technically, considering he had already run some reasonably fast races, he actually had less upside than the vast majority of 3YOs.

His defection is completely unsurprising.

Completely agreed. Hope he makes it back sometime... highly doubt it and found his last race no where near as impressive as Nobiz. As you said it was only a matter of time.

Let's see how greedy his owners are in deciding to retire him or not... another horse with a minor at best resume gettin retired... never seen that5 before... nope not at all lol. There's been horses 10-times worse retired, so I agree, he's done for good.

Were the 3 Northern Dancers and 4 Native Dancers too much of a "good" thing ?
