“[Eight Belles broke down] right where Raise a Native was the weakest, right in the ankles, and everybody acts like they don’t know what caused this filly to break down. It’s written right there for everyone to see! Except they refuse to see it. To admit it is to address the fact that all these stallions that are bred like that, that all the yearlings that are bred like that, are potential accidents waiting to happen.”
Jessica you are so naive, that makes too much sense to be true!
It can’t be true because if it were true, Waldrop would have addressed it on his blog.
Stop reading Nack and start reading Waldrop, that will get you back on the right track. :-)

Wish I hadn’t read this piece this morning. I can only fold up my laptop and give praise to the master. Nack is Nack, and, here, he is on top of his game. — J.S.
