Oh good Lord..... one has to read the UAE press releases to find out Friendly Island was retired.
No author listed..... Meanwhile, in other American news: Friendly Island, who finished second to Kelly’s Landing in the Dubai Golden Shaheen (Gr.1) on March 31 and to champion Thor’s Echo in last year’s Breeders’ Cup Sprint (Gr.1), has been retired after sustaining an ankle injury. Stud plans have not been announced for the six-year-old son of Crafty Friend who raced for the Anstu Stables of Anita and Stuart Subotnick. Trainer Todd Pletcher said that the injury would take too long to heal for Frienldy Island to be able to compete in this year’s Breeders’ Cup and so the decision was made to retire him, leaving his record at eight wins in 19 starts with earnings of US$1,369,714. * * * Happy retirement to Peeress, my favorite girl.

From DRF.....
Certifiably Crazy retired Certifiably Crazy, the two-time New York-bred male turf champion, has been retired due to a recurring problem with the stifle in his right foreleg, trainer Rick Schosberg said Wednesday. A 7-year-old gelded son of Fit to Fight, Certifiably Crazy posted a record of 8 wins, 12 seconds, and 3 thirds from 30 career starts. He debuted in August 2003, winning a $12,500 maiden claiming event at Calder by 8 3/4 lengths. Later that year, he finished second in the Grade 3 Calder Derby, one of three graded events in which Certifiably Crazy finished second. He was beaten a nose in the 2004 Red Smith at Aqueduct and a head in the 2005 Knickerbocker Handicap. In 2006, Certifiably Crazy won three restricted stakes, including the West Point at Saratoga and the Mohawk at Belmont. Certifiably Crazy was entered for the Kingston here last month but scratched due to the stifle issue. "We found instability in that stifle joint and concluded it looks like a torn ligament that would take quite a long time to heal,'' Schosberg said. "We decided he had done more than enough and it was time to call it a career.'' Schosberg, who trained Certifiably Crazy for Joseph Sweedler's Double S Stable, said Certifiably Crazy would be retired to the Wallkill facility of the Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation in upstate New York. http://www.drf.com/news/article/85762.html
