"Just learned Breeders Cup Juvenile Sprint Winner Hightail broke a sesamoid, and will no longer race. Very upsetting."

Would anyone be surprised if that race he won would be scrapped as for a few BC races too

I would not be surprised if that race is scrapped. A non graded race with a $500,000 purse.
