Very tough break. The Vet says he probably ran with the cancer in the Calder Race, though thought he was vulnerable there for a lot of reasons. Appears to be a fast growning cancer so how long hes had it is speculative. He was a great 3YO sprinter. Now both he and his toughest competition, "Egghead", will both be too soon gone. Was hoping for another race or two from him against the older horses but no one can take that winning streak he had away from him. He gets to keep that.
