Well I guess the news just keeps getting worse.

There's a BC silver lining. One of the Honk Kong horses planning on the Cox Plate is coming for the Breeders' Cup instead. I hope the Melbourne Cup goes off alright and the Diva and her foal remain in good health. I had heard she was aiming for Encosta and if he's got EI symptoms as the rumor is, I wonder what they'll do. What is the health situation of adult horses that get this? Is it gonna be hard on them but they recover or is risk of death particularly high? I know it's bad for foals' respiratory tracts right?
