Exactly! Doesn't mean the horse is through! And no, that sort of thing often goes undetected if it developes right before the race (within a day or so).

all the money I keep scrounging up to gamble is lost

don't they keep that money for you down at the local pawn shop?
here's a tip: don't bet every race, don't bet a horse at bad odds
and the only way to make any money at this game is to find
vulnerabe favorites and play against them in certain "spot plays"
now ask yourself if you have the discipline to do that
if the answer is no, travel south until you see a big red bridge
climb up to the top and hurl yourself off of it
DM I thought wasn't a good bet yesterday, excuse for the lung's ok
but it still don't pay, at the windows

Or Rockport Harbor.

One good performance in a long awaited race, then retired after the next.

That wasn't what the poster meant. The poster was saying that both Declan's Moon and Afleet Alex had a race where they ran bad due to a lung infection.
