Rest in peace.
I have been told there was another in a training accident the day before, I don't have the name though....
Also have been told these are all occuring in the same area on the track, but can't confirm.

"Track superintendent Brian Jabelmann said he examined the part of the track where the breakdowns occurred and found no problems. "I didn't see a thing,'' Jabelmann said. "It was just one of those things. It was freakish. And the same trainer ... not that it would have been any better if someone else had lost a horse. It's hard to get over the shock of one, then to have another one go.''

Doesn't seem freakish to me if these are occuring in the same area.

RIP to all...already a tough year.
