[i]Smarty Jones was retired with a superficial injury that occurred after he was a victim of quite a bit of "race-riding" in the Belmont, where he fought off multiple pace challenges at a distance he was not well suited for. If he wasn't worth so much, he would not have been retired.[/i]
You are in error about SJ. His injury wasn't superficial at all but quite serious. He had extensive bone bruising, I believe in all 4 limbs, and that is caused over time.
