Dr. Bramlage said that he pulled up lame, but that there were no outward signs of the cause and that he was being taken back to his stall for more thorough examination. Keeping fingers crossed.

Thanks Old Dog and yeah... fingers crossed big time.

Poor guy. My heart just sank hearing this but I suppose it could be sounding so much worse right about now so I'm grateful to hear this (although I wish I had heard he went back home and got a treat or something instead).

Well it says he walked into the van and is on his way back to Woodbine so I'll take that as good news.

Anyone seen an official retirement notice?

(I don't do FB although I'm now addicted to checking this page).

It sounds like it, doesn't it?

Rahy's Attorney wishes to thank all his fans for their love and support over his racing career. Who would have thought the little homebred, Ontario sired, horse from Spencerville would touch the lives of so many around the world!! A true Champion!!

Sure does. I suppose we'll get the details whenever a formal announcement comes. I wonder if his trouble came during the race or the gallop out? He certainly finished well -- didn't look like he was in trouble.
