or maybe they were making a statement about awt's?

Maybe, but still, Benny winning the eclipse is a joke.

And yeah, I know, it was a really weird year for the division with each contender having huge holes in their accomplishments.

Thats a ploy. They thought that they could make a mint off a son of Lucky Lionel at stud. He was not getting much attention. In fact his being the champ might make him worth more not less at stud.
He was not being well recieved. In fact they have announced that the 2010 Golden Shaheen is the goal, so he wont be heading back to the stud (barring injury) until 2011.

well, of course it is. i won't be surprised if more than BtheB and tiago come back-it's going to be a rough year for breeders. lot of mares being left open, lot less studs. hell, curlin ought to come back and threepeat as hoy-just think of the accolades everyone (jess jackson) would bestow on him then!! it would be awesome....lol

seriously, ought to be better racing for a while, a lot less horses moving to retirement. maybe this years derby winner will actually run next year.
