![]() I've been thinking of her ever since they discussed his symptoms before the Derby. It's pretty ambitious to focus on anything other than his health right now.

![]() As soon as they said "an elevated enzyme" I thought Oh gawd No!
There is no way that this colt races again, and while I know nothing about these things, I fear that the question of his survival at all is up in the air. I sincerely pray for his recovery. |

![]() My post was certainly tongue in cheek.
I didn't mean to take anything away from the groundbreaking Uncle Mo news. Now at least they'll have an ironclad reason to retire him in a month and announce where he's going to stand for $7,500. Stay Thirsty is a very average horse whose high profile trainer and owner have garnered him respect and attention that his racing prowess never warranted. |
