>He was physically and mentally weak, in addition to not having a very healthy set of internal organs. He also couldn't race without another familiar horse to accompany him. Like he'd legit have a nervous break-down.
>He also struggled with long-distance travelling. Long travel makes him lose lots of weight because of the stress and it takes a long time for him to recover.
>Not having a familiar horse around even during rest periods, preferably one from his stable, would swiftly lead to depressive behaviour.
>Before Kikka-Sho, the team transferred him to Ritto three weeks prior to the race, and they had to find a partner (Blue Ridge River) to accompany him. However, Blue Ridge River won a race and returned home, and Cafe became depressed again, so the team had to call in another horse (Deauville Cafe) immediately. Manhattan is high maintenance like that.
>He earned his nickname “pitch black skyscraper” after his 2001 Arima Kinen victory.
>In-game and in the anime, the horse girl refers to a 'friend' only she can see that is usually depicted as being a double of Manhattan herself. There's multiple fan theories as to who this is: His father, Sunday Silence, being the most prevalent. Another (and personal favourite of mine) is that it might represent his brother, New York Cafe, who tragically passed during the infamous 2011 Earthquake.
>It's unknown why they went for an occult-ghost theme for Manhattan beyond that, though.
