He suffered from bowed tendon in September.
He was diagnosed as unable to return as a racehorse and retired.

After his retirement

He was not offered as a stallion.
The reasons, apparently, were that he was bad looking and that his bloodline was poor.
He was missing after his retirement.
At one time, there were even rumors that he was already dead.
About a year after his retirement, rumors circulated that he would return as a racehorse in NAR.
That rumor bacame a fact.
His bowed tendon was said had been cured, but we will never know how well it had healed.
He was forced to run the races again, even though he should have lost his ability as a racehorse.
This caused controversy.
His connections thought he might be able to become a stallion if he could work as a racehorse again, and it would be very good for him if that came true.
Of course, the intentions of his connections may not be denied by people who are not involved.
But his return to active, more than a year after his injury and retirement, was too much for him.

All races after his returned

He debuted as a racehorse again, but it was no good at all.
He retired for the second time.

After his second retirement

Unfortunately, he was not offered as a stallion.
He was taken in as a riding horse.
He finally found a safeliving land and began to live the rest of his life.
But he died of pneumonia shortly after two months.
