So the best horses America has to offer for the BC which everyone points to has went like this so far:
Echo Zulu, Major Injury and Surgery.
Mage, Fever (excellent press release though)
Geaux Rocket Ride, Injured During Work and Not Doing Terrific so Far post-surgery (Great TVG coverage and tweets from Pin Oak)
White Abarrio, Foot Issue and Couldn't Train, Turns in great work days later
Arcangelo, Foot Issue, Retired and Can't Run (Professional interview by the trainer to announce it)
Get Smokin, Minor Setback, Won't Run (So-So Press Release)
Practical Move, Dead (THIS, THIS is a Problem)
People say I'm a conspiracy theorist I'm told in these parts LOLOL. No conspiracy here. The horses just aren't up to the task I guess.
Three more days to see who is next to fall from the entries.
I do have one question though while we wait on "Who's Next?" Has there been any other trainers to have a horse or several horses die just after a workout from cardiac arrest? High caliber, fit as a fiddle horses? I'll have to look into that.
