Default Discreetly Mine injured, out of Cup
The Breeders' Cup Sprint lost yet another top contender when trainer Todd Pletcher revealed Discreetly Mine will miss the race because of an injury to his left stifle. Division leader Majesticperfection was the first major defection from the race when retired because of injury late this summer.

Pletcher said it took several days to diagnose the exact nature of Discreetly Mine's problem but received the bad news from Dr. Larry Bramlage on Wednesday.

Wow. Is there a single horse running now that actually deserves to be the BC Sprint winner?

Probably the one who actually wins the race... you do not deserve it if you fail to start.

I don't recall the Sprint division ever being as thin as it is this year, especially now with the injuries.

This will make a usual wide open race even more wide open.

He sucks, but everyone was giving this race to Discreetly Mine. Something seems really wrong with this?

Well that race just went from a Race 9(1 horse in P4 and P6) stone cold pick at 2-1 to who the hell knows? Could be a great betting race

Too bad for him tho
