Responsibility

I'll Have Another was pulled from the 144th running of the Belmont Stakes due to a swollen left front tendon and was retired.

The winner of the first two legs of the Triple Crown set aside his quest to be the first horse to successfully complete this trifecta in 34 years.

Trainer Doug O'Neill and owner J. Paul Reddam made the tough decision to pull the colt in the best interest of the horse.

Never take lightly your responsibility to do what is best for others when put in a position to do so.
