I think it comes down to the fact that he cannot go over a mile. He is a great horse around a mile, but to go much over, especially a 1 1/4, is beyond him.
I, like everyone else, hopes that he doesn't have an "injury" and makes it back to the track, but who knows. He will probably be hanging out with Bernardini talking about the good ole' days after their first major loss...
