That was my question as well. :( I really, really, sincerely hope it had nothing to do with the blue eye. I wonder if they're regretting it already. LOL

His breeding is decent, so I suspect that he was gelded in hopes of making him a better runner. That was what was done with both Mine That Bird and Funny Cide.
