Obviously it's disconcerting to see an 11-year-old plunge that sharply in class .. but maybe it's just Lake rolling the dice and hoping no one claims him so he can have him elidigble for starter races.

I think if he runs poorly without an excuse - it's 100% they should retire him. I'd wait for a bad race at that level before calling for his retirement though.
Perhaps he has the claiming crown at CBY next month in mind.
