Yes, but I think that they pushed AA a little too hard which caused his premature retirement. Plus, I think it was a very bad move to put the screw in. SW doesn't have a screw in his leg does he? I believe that a screw causes more pressure in the surrounding bone. AA's injury that led to his retirement happened just above the screw. They have also given Stevie Wonderboy a lot longer off. His first workout was three fourlongs in 38 and change.

I don't know if he will ever be the same horse or not, but I do give him a better chance than AA.
