I'm sure Paul is happy with Connect going to stud, the fact was the horse was tough to keep sound.
“I’ve said it before, but of all the very good horses I’ve been fortunate to own Connect is in another league,” said Pompa. “Of course we’re all very disappointed that he won’t be able to run again, but I’m also looking forward to the next stage of his career. Lane’s End has an exceptional record and I’m confident that the outstanding syndicate that’s been put together will give him every chance for success.”
