This is very upsetting. The whole stallion string, thoroughbreds and quarterhorses, dead. You know, alot of people are up in arms making noise about what happened to Barbaro and how breeders should change and the Triple Crown should be altered to possibly prevent something like that from happening. That's all well and good if it works and is good for the game, but how about something tangible, like a superior sprinkler system, something rather simple to implement, that may have saved these animals? Sometimes you have to wonder who is in charge and what they are thinking when simple things like sprinklers seem to be overlooked.
