The rest of the article is so beautiful too, isn't it? The beginning part about greatness....

It's sad... there's nothing on the Indian racing site yet.

Two in one week.... it must be hard.

This is about Antonios.

That last line...that just says it all about the way their horses are treated.

Too bad he didn't make it.

RIP

The Dubai race did not turn as well as one would have hoped. The project was not abandoned. Antonios was trained for his second race at the Meydan. That was not to be. Antonios began showing signs of distress. It was found that there was damage to the pelvic area. Plans were afoot to bring the Derby winner back to India and let him have an existence free from pressure and stress.
