They are in a tough spot now. He would make a good stallion, and they did already send him to do that job. Now, with some issues, he is back at track and his mind is on other things. I hope and don't think they will cut him, but that would get his mind back on racing quick.

My Guess is that they race him this year, and try again next year in the shed. Way to valuable at the moment to geld him. Even if it does take 4-6 months to train him again. To be honest, there's not too much here for him at the start of the season!
