When I saw JR take him straight to the lead I thought it was over, just like last year in The Whitney. Well, that did not happen Horse wants the lead based on the past performance lines no? Wonder what happened? Oh well. I just know that when I stopped at Presque Isle on the way home and saw 5-2 and then 2-1 I thought that was a darn good value on this horse. Oh well, you have done more then enough. Time to enjoy retired life

Zito said the Whitney might have been the final start for Commentator, who has won 14 of 24 starts and amassed $2,049,845 in career earnings.

“It's up to [owners] Mr. and Mrs. [Tracy] Farmer, but it is my wish to retire him,” Zito said. “I don't want him running in those New York-bred races. He's Commentator."


far from official, but i just read that excerpt in an article on t'bred times about the race...


the horse has certainly had his moments-if he is retired, i hope he enjoys it! he's earned it for sure.
