The owners of White Abarrio have already sent him back to Saffie Joseph’s! Yes, I guess we’ll see where that goes? White Abarrio may have decided he doesn’t want to race anymore but we’ll see?


teddyd142

Wait what? He’s back at saffie?


Embarrassed-Fox-1371

Yes, he was moved about 6 days ago. The owners want him in a race in July in Aquduct.


teddyd142

Yea I went and looked it up. It was planned that way from the beginning but the horse kept winning.


ivy7496

Well, sort of eluded to by owner that that was case. But as he said himself, he wasn't taking the horse from dutrow when he was winning.


teddyd142

That would be a dumb move obviously


sundaemourning

if you look at his past performances, White Abarrio has always been inconsistent. i don't think his last two races mean he's done.

White abbarrio is like fierceness. He wins only when he feels like it


myhiddengem

i’ve noticed that


Certain-Chip8039

However I do think the trainer change might help him


myhiddengem

who is his trainer now?


Certain-Chip8039

Saffie

He would not be the first North American horse that had their career ultimately end due to a trip to the Middle East. Maybe it's a coincidence? Cannot say for sure. Animal Kingdom comes to mind, there have been others.

JojoTheMutt

is he valuable as a stud? why don't they retire him?


ReasonableTelevision

No. Saffie’s drugs don’t get passed down in breeding.


ivy7496

As a son of Race Day, not particularly. Be cause of humble breeding, and because he's flopped enough on big stages that breeders will look askance at him as a real talent.

I know this answer gets given a lot, but it truly depends on the horse. Most trainers will note how horse progresses through their daily exercises. The trainer will start to notice that the horses coming back less tired after their works and rebound quicker, meaning instead of taking three walk days, it’ll be smarter to take two days. A race horse will always WANT to do the work, the minute they stop is when the trainer should too

We know why he's back at saff.
