supposedly three chimneys has no say til he retires...but perhaps they could suggest things?
he missed months of racing due to his feet between his 2 yo debut and his first at three, and i think it was due to his feet that they were keeping him on the turf-that and the fact he could run so well on it.


chuck, he ran down behind pretty badly in the preakness-i remember your comment about it being significant that he bled through his bandages the way he did. could that be caused by him having sore feet, and perhaps changing his style of running? i don't know if there's a correlation between the two or not, which is why i'm asking.
