I read somewhere (Facebook?) that it was actually his former trainer David Jacobson who ensured his safe retirement.

ETA - Yeah, check out Drawing Away Stable on Facebook for the story.

Jacobson was EAF's trainer prior to the last claim (again per Equibase), so perhaps he is the trainer to whom the blog refers. It'd certainly be nice to give credit where credit is due.
