(maybe just because someone is doing what is right for the horse, and that is not always the case in a money situation like this)

| If he broke a leg they'd lose the horse and the millions in stud fees for a few years. In five to six years we should know if he can produce earners consistently. The right thing was done

The right thing was done | He wouldn't have broken his leg due to a tendon. But he wouldn't have won and may not have looked good at all. Running sore causes horses to look really bad.
Smart move for the horse and smart business move. I like Union Rags over him anyway. But wish he'd have stayed healthy. The air is sucked out of this place. Posted via VolNation Mobile | |

| Was very disappointed to hear this. Pay almost no attention to horse racing, but who doesn't want to see a triple crown winner? Tv ratings will drop way down now. | |
