MO:

Wouldn\'t be surprised to see the Whitney or Woodward fall off Zappers busy, rigorous schedule. Reminds me of Victory Gallop\'s 4yo season...

Should Alex win the Travers and say JCGC, he\'d deserve HOY honors.

sheets,

If Alex and Ghost were to lose a couple along the way or get hurt.... and the Fog wins out thru the Breeders Cup what chance does he have for HOY? Just a thought.

Now he\'s retired. Next up is Bellamy Road and Bandini.

MO,
I believe most of us knew it wasn\'t a question of if he retired due to injury but when. The faster they run the faster they \"retire\". You were right all along. We sure are seeing this more and more frequently.

God forbid AA gets hurt and the Breeder\'s Cup Classic might come down to three former 50K claimers that mysteriously moved up 10 lengths in 5 days. I\'m afraid everyone that ever won a graded race against garbage cans and gained a hyped reputation as a result will be retired with a tooth ache, skin rash, or bad cold before taking a chance on getting exposed.
