No. I'e followed that devious white haired mind for a long time. He doesn't want to bring him back yet. Not in a race. He can't move 2 feet without a reporter, a blogger, or some total loon wanting the next exclusive . Yeah, he usually loves it, but the loons are very thick this time.
Arrogate blew up on him. He doesn't want that this time. Where is the B C this year? He will aim for that, probably 2 good races as preps, maybe one, depends on how the horse acts and reacts. To say not too much about that contentious crew of owners, who we seem to need score cards to keep track of. The ankle is to give him time to come up with a plausible explanation. In other words, "Gimme a break!".

The fan in me makes me want to agree with you. But time is running out for Justify to return to training and prepare for the Travers.
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.

Well, now, this is interesting. May mean nothing but still, interesting... take a look at this Twitter thread. Rumors (?) are flying!
https://twitter.com/hunterandhorses/...61206224850944 Who can substantiate this info about "He’s been removed from the BC Classic futures at Wynn Las Vegas"? Edit: found this link to an article https://www.horseracingnation.com/ne..._the_board_123

https://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-rac...ed-from-racing No surprise here. But, do what's in the horse's best interest is the important thing. Just incredibly disappointing. Was kind of hoping they go in the 2019 Pegasus, too. Oh well.
