Analysis: Uh Oh…not the best time to come up with any sort of injury. The reports are that Texas Red has a foot abscess, and will miss some training time. The Arkansas Derby is now his target, but this is a situation that has to be monitored closely. Any sort of set back will put this talented colt in serious jeopardy of even making the staring gate on the first Saturday in May.
