How bad was Broker's Tip?

[Merlinsky]

I had assumed from the name that he was a son of Fair Play, but I just saw that Head Play was by My Play, a full brother to Man O' War. He looks like the only winner of a 1933 TC race that accomplished anything worthwhile after. Did he take 1934 off for injury?

Looks like neither Head Play and Brokers Tip entered the Belmont that year, the win going to Hurryoff who just came out of a $4000 claimer and never raced again per the ever informative Google search engine.
