No. He was retired because of a "puffy" ankle.

The sad part is, despite all these Uncle Mo's retiring, the real 'Mo we would all prefer to retire is unfortunately still going strong.

No liver damage is going to slow you down.

You must be in too competitive a market. Try Venezuela or North Korea. If they don't want you there, you may have to resort to line breeding...

Or maybe an equipment change is in order. By the way, is Guest Suite a non-contender for the Derby being a gelding? I wonder what he did to be gelded, he has a strong bottom side.

Equipment change was circa 2005 which begs the question in 2017 which public bathrooms am I privy too?

He must have bit the Ambassador or perhaps they were concerned he might be competition for Mr Sekiguchi's mares

A lot of pace here, I think shareholder value is worth a long look.

Local hero at 4-1 ml off a maiden romp vs. these seems pretty low.
