Perhaps you are right, but considering his long track record of messing up horses, I'll put forth the proposition that he had something to do with her dying in much the same way pletcher had nothing to do with that really nice horse left bank.

if you remember, in those days Harty had Godolphin's 2YOs based out in SoCal.
someone else(name escapes me) kept a string of the lesser thought of 2Yos at Arlington.
then once the BC was over, they left Harty's care and were shipped off to Dubai and trained by Suroor.

not much debate from me on harty training imperial gesture at 2, but i'm highly doubtful he trained her at 3.
he also ruined the probable bc filly winner this year, in imperial reign. after making a pair of really bone headed remarks, she ended up getting seriously wounded and then retired (pretty sure she's now retired).
hey druggie, do you remember those pair of harty quotes about IR this past summer and fall? one was something about being a small big filly, but i cant remember the other one.
