Alm, couldn't agree more with your post. Those who've read my previos posts will know how long I have been high on Barbaro ( 1/1/06 ). At the Med simo, I was shocked when I first saw him on the track, and this was later verified to me when I got home and saw more of the video shot before the race. He looked to me like he was definitely in some kind of physical discomfort,and when he broke through the gate he took my breath away again, this time for the wrong reason. I think his own physical development did him in; as Bob Baffert said at the Derby. " He's a man among boys ". A muscular "man" with the bones of a boy. It wasn't a mis step, the problem was in the making before the race.
