A mismanaged horse is more like it, not overrated. They could of just rested him and planned out a 2012 campaign.

Pletcheritis is the leading cause of death in racing

Hopefully, the bloodwork on Stay Thirsty suggests he can still race.

I say he wins the Donn, then 7th in the Met Mile, followed by a bad 3rd in the Whitney and done.

Repole will be so proud.

While I loathe the term boorish mostly because I don't understand the meaning it certainly is becoming such with this Liver BS.

So a colt worth millions that was near death with Liver disease hasn't had weekly liver enzyme monitoring. How fn stupid to they think people are what are we talking about a nickle claimer at Fairmount.

they were never planning on running him next year, which is why they ran him where they did.

His announced fee for 2012 is 35k, making him the second highest priced stallion at Coolmore (America), behind, of course, GC.

The other new stallion, Capo Blanco, $17.5K.

Thanks for the hype. May your jizz be as overrated and sour as your racing career.
