Another set back!

Not surprising. Talk to anyone down there who sees this horse out on the track regularly and they have been saying this for a few months now.....the horse barely trains most days and it is very difficult to get him to do anything substantial. I never bought the foot abcess thing as anything more than an excuse.
Finally worked this morning.
No work this weekend for either him or McCraken?
McCraken worked this AM
And it was a very good one. Already at Keeneland, already settled and doing quite well...
