We've seen this routine all too many times before with high profile horses that have significant residual value in the breeding shed. The intention is stated to keep the horse in training for some unspecified period, but some relatively minor injury occurs that causes the connections to rethink their positions. The need to protect that residual breeding value, usually many times the value of any purses that could be won, usually wins out. I can't blame them; they are business people as well as sportsmen.
