At Penn National the other night...

I haven't heard anything about the horses or jockeys.

Anyone know?

Zidane, who broke down and initiated the pileup, was reported elsewhere as sustaining injuries requiring euthansia, unfortunately ...

The horse was also claimed from this race ...

PA racing is really grisly currently ...

This was yet another sad chapter...

1/17 - 6th Race, Philadelphia Park

Greatest Passion, a 4 year-old gelding broke down on the far turn and was humanely destroyed.

I added both to the angels thread. Thanks for finding out.

Awww I hate adding this name. Hope he's okay.

Mr. Umphrey...

Any news is appreciated.

The Big Truck rumors continue...

Can anyone confirm this or put an end to it?

Apparently there was / might have been an incident at Tampa Bay the other day...

I hate posting rumors but if anyone knows either way...

Poor guy.

Can anyone confirm the Shark story (that he died on a flight on the way to Caracas)?

Sacred Light and Six Cents of Humor were both vanned off today (Golden Gate).

Any news?

I'm asking again for any news on Mr. Umphrey.

I know there's one forum where he's on the farewell list but i can't find any confirmation and so will continue hoping for the best.

Ms kitty Cat they die all the time just flag them on the "angels" thread when in doubt.. Come on it's racing its brutal its hardly sweet and lovin. Jocks whip the horse to go faster because the faster they go the more money humans make?

Yeah I know Freddy.

Mr. Umphrey was at Philly. 7k.

That for a horse who had been in the Met Mile?

I know, I know... rabbit for Silver Wagon, for Diamond Stripes but still...

I know I'm probably a fan of too many (of the non-greats) but I always had a soft-spot for him and I just want to know either way. That's all.

Rabbits are good eats my cat is good for at least 5 babies every spring.. Within a week of there birth she has them between her chops.. Let it they are horses..

They deserve one little final mention somewhere.

If I see their name(s), I'll mention them. If I was a fan I'll write as much or something I remember.

Does it matter? No.

It's just something I do... it's just something I do because it's all I can do and if other people don't see it or don't get it or think it's idiotic that's fine.

It's just me.

I hope this guy is alright and if not i hope he didn't have to suffer for too long.

If I never find out well I can still hope that either way his last moments will not be or were not completely terrible and frightening.

I guess I hope that for all of us.

Okay why don't I shut up now.

Relax this is why chix dig you or guys or both?

Ummm translations are appreciated. :D

I made money on Bernardini the day Barbaro broke down..........I would have glady given it back if he would have never gotten hurt. There will never be a day that I won't care more about the horses than my bankroll. Keep doing what you are doing MMSC, there are many that care greatly about the welfare of the horses that get hurt, and I am one of them.

Ditto.
Fix your cat Mo.

Keep right on truckin' MMSC. I appreciate it. Sometimes you're the first person to let me know something happened to a horse I was fond of.

Freddy's just being a tard, don't pay him no mind.

Thanks, guys. I appreciate the kind posts. :)
