On the previous board I think it was Buzz who was counting the Unbridled Song's triple crown contenders as the wheels eventually fall off. This was the third and final one.

The Unbridled's Songs are brilliant but brittle. Dunkirk ran an incredible race. If they are serious about horse safety they should eliminate Unbridled's Song as a sire. But that will never happen.
I hope he can come back but I would be surprised if he does.

yea, a black ops gelding of Unbridleds Song is definitely warranted but I agree will never happen. Not much word on the other two, Midshipman and Old Fashioned, the latter who it seems is least likely of the two to return to the track.
At least we have a new crop of sires in M'd'Oro, Birdstone, and Speightstown that seem to be throwing good runners, and all three were relatively healthy runners themselves. Even rich folks like Rick Porter can only take so many broken horses before they get a clue. The market will correct itself.
by the way, the chronic "quarter cracks" in my thumbnails have improved drastically since I've started taking fish oil pills, which my mom says is due to the gelatin. I hope I don't get busted inthe detention barn.

Every Dunkirk Race Looked Like A Freak on the Track . Tons of Talent was Apparent but the Horse Acted Green/ Spooked in Every Race
Trainer Just Could not Get the Green Out
