Out ICU 1/4 pm and wins 4today. Thats one tough guy.:D

Holy crap. And here I am b#%^&ing about my hands being chapped from the cold to the point they're bleeding, no matter how much lotion I slap on there. I'm such a wimp compared to this guy.

not only that but they have nerves of steel. this is why i get irked when people complain about losing their crummy bet. or the posts on here "that stupid jockey cost me". (when i'm at the simulcast theres some guys that blame the jockey almost everytime they lose:confused: ) they risk life and limb everyday so you can have the privledge of gambling on it. next time you want to bitch...think about what these folks go through.....he was lucky....many of these stories don't have a happy ending. you can always get in another bet, these people can't replace a life or a spinal chord. not saying i don't get frustrated sometimes, but, i get over it real quick after thinking about it .

You haven't lived until you've seen a seizure brought on by an allergic reaction, to a vaccine or otherwise. So what makes you so sure what the cause of this horse's seizure was? I know they've had plenty of outbreaks and quarantines there in the past month and therefore I'm sure many horses got vaccinations they otherwise would not have.

As I said the other Day I watched this Unfold As we were going Back to the Barn Area and this had to be the Most Violent Seizure that I have ever seen And I was for certain that the would be Put Down. But Low and Behold I was told the Horse survived. I actually Talked to One of the State Vets Yesterday and they still had no Ideal what brought this On. THe vet Even Told me He had never seen Anything quite like that.

I know Hind sight is 20/20 But as I think Back that horse was acting very Unsettled in THe Paddock THe WHole time Prior To Kicking Daniel and I know alot of horses Act that way especially 1st time starters But I just have to Wonder Was the Horse trying to Tell Us Something????????
