Benny the Bull retired after injury

[Danzig]

six isn't that old, really. and considering the dearth of top horses, he could win quite a few races next year. well....considering who the trainer is, maybe not quite a few. but the few he enters.

as for raising or lowering his value...i'd think he hasn't got much value anyway.
now watch him take off at stud.





yeah, right.

Like I said, what is there left to win? The Forego, which he ran second in with a 119 Beyer, and the BC Sprint, and he would be well into his six-year-old year when those races finally came around.

I don't think he has much value at stud either, but whatever value he does have is probably at its peak right now (it'll be even higher once he wins the Eclipse), so I don't quite see the point in bringing him back at six.

He's done enough. Winning a major competition multiple times is not the cool thing to do in this sport.

I dont think an Eclipse will do anything value wise for this horse at stud. Closing sprinters by LL in a depressed market arent going to be well received regardless of awards.
