Declan’s Moon “graduated” from the Retired Racehorse Training Program’s 100 Day Challenge in an exhibition at Caves Farm near Baltimore, Maryland on Saturday. The undefeated juvenile star, together with trainer and rider Steuart Pittman, went through his paces and jumped a small fence for the audience at the indoor arena.

It was when the tack came off though, that attendees were really impressed. Watching Declan’s Moon power through a floating trot and rolling, natural gallop riderless was “like watching Bo Jackson run sprints” according to This Is Horse Racing’s Joe Clancy....

This is the video from Caves Farm . . . It's over an hour long.

12 minutes into the video:
From what I gathered from Steuart Pittman, Samantha Siegal(sp?) and Josh Pons wants Declan to be happy and so he will go back to the Country Life Farm and rule the paddock over his 2 half brothers. So no more Dressage.
