i hate to speak for anybody, especially andy, but i think his point was that it's the entire triple crown campaign, preps included, that will wear a horse out. after making it all the way to the belmont, a 3yo will most likely need a breather, perhaps for a very extended period of time. and if that colt happened to be running for 5mil, he may have gone in the belmont when he really shouldn't have. definitely monarchos should not have run, and many would say funny cide could have used a break after the preakness. if they were in a different order, say kd,b,p, we'd have a thread that says the preakness has done it again.
i still think it's the derby. look what it did to barbaro.
