Default War Pass Retired?

noticed that they retired War Pass... When did this happen? I don't remember hearing that he was retired, only had gotten hurt.

Noticed where? Nick Zito mentioned the other day that he wasn't getting back from the injury as quickly as hoped, but there's been no formal announcement of his retirement that I've seen...

I saw him at the barn the other day.

There is no intended tone to my response.

I don't like your tone when you say "no tone intended."

Default RoadtoRetirement

I saw something somewhere about War Pass being retired then it dawned on me where I saw it...the online contest, RoadtotheBreedersCup. War Pass is listed in the stable choices as "War Pass - Retired - Do not add".

Weird.

He won't be running this year but they didn't retire him. So it really should just not include his name.

Discussions about War Pass' future seem to all have gloomy overtones. Zito was asked about it and got all vague apparently which can't be good, can it?
