Richardson says recovery, if it were to happen, would take 5-6 months at the VERY LEAST.

He says they'll call it quits when Barbaro acts like he doesn't want to stand on the leg.

The decision to put him down could happen rapidly, within a day or two of bad signs, but right now, the horse looks bright and is eating well.

The last thing he said was "if you looked at this horse, it would be very hard to put him down" and he got up, ending the press conference.

It's a very sad day.....
