The good news is that they caught it early and it didn't turn into
a major problem

[MisterB]

More to follow I'm sure

not a suprise.
I was just beginning to think it's been pretty quiet with very few horses going off the derby trail with injuries (Buffalo Man and Exhale may have been the two major ones so far).

Interesting to see how this shakes up the Santa Anita derby, who Garret Gomez will end up riding and if Rags to Riches takes a shot. It's possible another Pletcher horse will now go to the SA Derby (Perhaps CQ since he trains at Hollywood)?

I thought CQ was going to the Wood or am I mistaken?

[Linny]

That explains why he hasn't trained since the 11th.

A horse is kept from breaking down,and the filly may get into the Derby.I don't see the negative here.I guess if ya had Ravel in the futures,then it sux.

[Hickory Hill Hoff]

Well, my three Derby future wagers made it through March 21st...
one gone, two to go! It NEVER fails..................

It SUCKS!

[PPerfectfan]

They said the the scan lit up on the front leg so obviously there is a problem. I was really looking forward to seeing him move forward but I would have hated to see something happen to him in a race. I am also surprised that more havent been thrown to the wayside on the Derby trail. A nice surprise.

[cmorioles]

I guess all that polytrack training didn't help, eh?

This looks like it may open up the door for Rags to Riches to run in the SA Derby. I'd be surprised if she doesn't end up their now.

[Seattleallstar]

dammit all to hell, this makes it official Circular Quay is your Ky Derby winner

[XIIPointStables]

I better not bet the Derby....

First I loved Tiz Wonderful...out.
Then I landed on Ravel as my Derby Horse V2.0...see ya.

Back to the drawing board.

That's where they've been pointing him, but I read the other day that he's not 100% locked in on what the next race would be for CQ, Cowtown Cat or Deadly Dealer. I assume they'll stick with the Wood, but this could possibly change things I imagine.
Although if Rags to Riches runs in the SA derby, CQ wouldn't since they have the same ownership.

[brianwspencer]

This thread should immediately be retired to the Hatton room.

Even though it is only March 21st, but we have now officially seen our number one shock of the year.

You just can't top this as far as "things you NEVER saw coming" goes.

CQ must be a good shipper since they apparently don't mind sending him all over the place, I'd guess he'll still hit the road(for the Wood) for that reason.

Notional.

Whats up here also?

I think one of you guys should try this. Go up to your boss and say....I need the next 3 months off because I am pretty sure I have a broken leg.
The X-Rays say I don't, but I feel that I probably do.
