You're actually being pretty disingenuous given some of your other posts, especially during the Belmont Stakes, where there was a few posts predicting this exact thing (Materiality being toast).

I suppose when Violette fries Upstart for good (probably next out), that colt's previous races will also cease to be fast.
Not proof simply anecdotal. Case could be made that it was too fast to soon and fried them.

The real shame is this colt had real talent and IMO could have been a super nice type. Also could have tripped in a paddock as well?
