I suppose he was difficult to handle but isn't that just part of the game?

It's impossible to understand many of the "why" aspects of this game when we see these horses about 20 minutes or so a month. The other 23 hours and 40 minutes in the day, and the other 29 or 30 days in the months tell much more of the story -- especially to someone who lives with the horses, knows what he/she is doing, etc. I've seen trainers cut horses for innumerable reasons.

You don't know what you don't know.
