It is so crazy..I have NEVER heard of a horse breaking two front legs at the same time! Even the vet said never in his career has he seen anything like it  Too tragic.... |

I have read that PETA may step in there because of her age. These horses are racing before their bones are fully developed and that is just wrong. I hope this can be a big learning lesson and there are no more tragedies like this again. |

The great pleasure of a dog is that you may make a fool of yourself with him and not only will he not scold you, but he will make a fool of himself too

They are started too young (yearlings and 1 1/2 yr. olds!!!!) and ridden too hard. The track at the Derby place doesn't have a poly track like some others have gotten. I wouldn't be surprised if she had hairline fractures from stress and running hard on that track made them blow out totally. It's sickening and I'm so glad I was out of town on Sat. and didn't watch the race....I usually don't watch races because of the potential for injuries.
I have no patience for PETA, they just want to start trouble. |
