FourstarDaveThe three-year-old Wood Memorial winner hurt his left front leg and will miss the Preakness and the Belmont Stakes, trainer Nick Zito told the Daily Racing Form.
The dark bay colt has some inflammation of the tissue that surrounds the splint bone, known in racing circles as having "popped a splint."
"The bad news is he popped a splint," Zito said. "The good news is the X-rays are clean otherwise, there's no fractures so he'll be back for the big races this summer."
I'll take the bet for $20 in the Traverse and buy you beer all day long
