She's got a couple of tears in the upper third of the tendon, which spells retirement. It's not horrible, but a filly like this, the way she's come around as of late, there's not even a question. It's just a shame. She couldn't have trained better since the race at Saratoga, but that's how these things happen sometimes.

By definition, a strain is a tearing of tissue. There is tearing, to some degree. But it's not as if this thing [the tendon] is pulled off the bone in any way. That is not the case. But [the MRI exam] does show inflammation in that area. That's why the diagnosis of a strain was put on this.

Despite reports to the contrary, Kevin is in the squad for tomorrow. We thought he was suffering from a hernia but it is tendon damage. That is not as bad as we thought although he still cannot train during the week. He will get a rest and possibly an operation if it is needed later.

He broke the left one first; we had a tendon operation. Then he broke the right one. He had seven fractures in the hand. But he's been coming to the gym anyway. He wasn't hitting the bags, but he was jumping rope, shadowboxing, doing exercise.

It happened a couple of days ago and it's gotten worse, ... I don't know how, but it doesn't take much to aggravate it. It's the size of a large cantaloupe. I think I strained the tendon in the back where the calf connects.

I've got a ruptured bicep femoris tendon, which is at the back of the knee and it joins onto the fibula and that's completely detached from the bone, so I'll have that surgically attached on Saturday week, so fingers crossed everything goes right.

Yesterday he felt a little twinge in his knee. It was pretty well localized to the bottom end of his kneecap, in the patellar tendon. We're going to reevaluate him in 10 days, two weeks, and hopefully he'll be ready to go by then.

Luckily it's in the upper part of his left-fore tendon so it's a good area, as tendon injuries go, to recover from. He's a clear-winded horse and he's an athletic horse so I would say he's got a very good chance of making a full recovery and, please God, in time for the 2007 Gold Cup - we are going to give him all the time he needs.
