probably time to let the horse rest, hes done more than what was expected of him and during his time a true late running force on turf against the best in America. If not he will get bounced around across the country running in claiming races. Its obvious the change in scenery in socal hasnt done a damn thing. Before he miraculously beat Gio Ponti he had not won a race until Sept of 2007. The people should do right by the horse. Or else we will see him running a cheap claiming race late night at Mountaineer back of the pack not doing any running at all

also to answer your question, drop him down a mid level claiming race during Hollywood meet and go from there. Nothing you really can do but just go down the ladder and see where he still fits in if at all.

If you were considering the San Juan, why not think about the Elkhorn at Keeneland? There may not be any monsters in there with the undercards for the Triple Crown coming up. Just a thought.................

someone should claim him, then send him to a nice horse farm. He deserves it as do all horses like Interpretation.

That's a nice thought (and please God no one has to bite off my head now with the yeah but maybe he still enjoys running argument. Just sayin... nice thought).
