I'm hoping to hear an apology from this owner for what he said....if he does, then I'll feel bad that Chrome got beat. They come into the game and get so lucky with a home-bred. They get beat in the final leg of the TC, so he feels the game needs an overhaul? They should be happy they got as far as they did....I just don't understand it. You buy a horse who broke her maiden in a claimer for 8,000....they breed her to a 2,500 sire....win two legs of the TC with her foal and he gets beat in the Belmont Stakes running a gallant race in defeat and he has the audacity to cry about it? I really thought they cared for their horse and the business....if Chrome could speak he'd be ashamed and apologize for that dumb ass partner. I think they will return to California, give Chrome a well deserved rest and maybe stay on the west coast, where he can face the same challengers every time he runs. Can't have those new challenger's...no that wouldn't be fair. This guy needs to apologize publicly or sell his interest in California Chrome, because that fool just tarnished California Chrome's good name....not to mention embarrass his other partner and the Sherman's.
