Tendinitis is setting in and the horse can’t run in the Belmont Stakes tomorrow. Trainer Doug o’Neill.
“…….he has been showing a little bit of…he has been a little quiet the last few days, but his legs have been great….yesterday he galloped great but in the afternoon we noticed some loss of defination in his left front leg, to which like every other owner and trainer we prayed he’d just kind of hit himself and it was just a little bit of skin irritation….this morning he looked great…..so I thanked the racing gods there, and we did just a little easy gallop with him today…I thought he looked great on the track…and then cooling out you could tell that swelling was back and at that I didn’t feel very good”
