“He strained his left front tendon and it would take too long to heal and bring him back,” Shirreffs said. “It’s very minor. With his size, it would take a long time. We had hoped to have a 4-year-old year with him.”
It can't be "very minor" and "take a long time".
I'm calling BS.

Thanks Hooper for the added information. I'm guessing a bowed tendon and that would take quite awhile to get him back, if ever, to racing at the same level.

if you listened to Bruno's Derby webinar, the guy was spot on about this runner. He wasn't right going in to the race. As said, it took him too long to get his body moving properly--watch the start and the finish. Not in condition to win a G1 race, and was the 2nd wagering choice. All out to be a distant 4th. Too bad--he was a nice one.
