Default Malibu Moonshine
Anyone hear any word on him. He was vanned off and there are conflicting stories about him.

Didn't realize Malibu Moonshine was 8 at this point. Seems not that long ago he was winning the Tesio.

Still looking around for at least a diagnosis of what was wrong with him whatever the result, but I did find this: http://www.saratogian.com/articles/2...c234380838.txt

"The top three in the race were followed by Flying Private, Masala, and Malibu Moonshine, who was eased; the 8-year-old gelding jogged back to the unsaddling area under his own power but was vanned off."

I'm hoping that's a sign he's ok. Do horses get jogged over to the unsaddling area, vanned off, and end up fine? The article calls him a gelding, but I thought he was still intact.

Thanks for finding that and yeah here's hoping...

People seem to update these quite a bit when it's very bad news (for some of them any way)...

I'll remain hopeful and hope that no (more) news really is good news.
