Of Interactif, he only said he wasn't crazy about the track for him for a serious work and would wait. If Discreetly Mine came up, I missed it.

This is very disappointing because I was going to play against him.

Bummer news - I personally know a couple dozen people who are not having a good time this morning hearing this news.

Terrible news. I thought this was a very special horse and was very much looking forward to his performance next week.

I was really looking forward to seeing him run. Oh well, at least this didn't happen the morning of the Derby.......

Not looking good for our two "E" horses, including Endorsement, my personal favorite. Let it go, Exterminator!

Wow on Eskendereya. Uh oh on Endorsement. Getting left in the barn on the day of a scheduled work can't be a good thing this close to the race.

something says "karma" about the whole Zayat bankruptcy thing. I think he's a good horse.
