CTC,
Don't you think it's curious that almost every single time a top horse gets his head handed to him it's because he got hurt or bled and never because he wasn't good enough.
Personally, I think a lot of the supposed injuries are nothing more than an attempt to either excuse the loss and/or avoid future embarassment. In other words they are trying to protect the value of an overrated horse.
Not saying that's true in all cases, but I think it is true a lot of the time.
