Rags to Riches Retired
Rags to Riches retired: http://www.drf.com/news/article/93176.html
"It's the same injury, a hairline P1 fracture, and it just looked like it wasn't going to hold up," Pletcher said. "I wasn't happy with the way she galloped yesterday [Sunday], we took some additional X-rays, and after discussing the situation with Mr. Tabor, we agreed it wasn't worth the risk of continuing on with her." Gee I am soooo shocked!

Is this April 1st? It's got to be some kind of a joke. Right?

I kinda figured this after the Belmont and was totally shocked to see her run in the race after, which i cannot remmeber the name of, the horse is just too valuable and her foal will go for HUGE money if its "correct". By Giantscauseway you would think that would make for a good match on paper right??? Anyway, im not too bummed b/c she did give us not only the best racing moment last year but def. one of the top 10 from the entire year.

I really enjoyed "Rags" immensely more so than any of last years very capable 3 year old class. That Belmont will stay with me for a very long time....I thought it was the moment that defined 2008 actually and I am sad she won't ever get a chance to mow'em down in the stretch like few could....she was not around long enough to be considered truly great but she was a horse who's career had moments that will be discussed for decades to come especially the Belmont beating of the boys...yeah, there is loss there for a sentimental fool like myself.
