Default Archarcharch Injury; Retired
Anybody have any details on what's going on with Arch Arch Arch? I can not tell you how much my heart goes out to his connections. They are some of the good guys in racing and on what should have been one of the highest days of their lives win or lose - their horse gets pulled up past the wire and taken away. If anyone has any details on the horse please post.

Thanks

too bad he had to be retired. they said they were getting calls about standing him after he won the ark derby. i wonder if they regret cancelling his sale?

Fires thinks that Archarcharch most likely was injured at the start, didn't like the way he looked the first time past the clubhouse. Considering then that he ran a mile and a quarter with the injury, the fact that he didn't do more damage seems remarkable. I'm sad that he won't be coming back, but happy it wasn't worse.
