I cant fault the Chapman's for retiring Smarty either. Not only was he injured, but Mr Chapman's health was not so good either. I think it was in their best interest and the horses that they retire Smarty.

I also understand when the Sheikh retires a horse. They are also a breeding operation and they want more and more runners so they can continue their quest to dominate racing. Not saying I agree, but I do understand.
