Her leg required stitches apparently. Not sure how many. Does she normally act that nutty pre-race? The jockey started to come off when she hit the ambulance and bounced back into the saddle.

Could this be an over-reaction to last year's no scratch?

although initially they might have thought it was an over-reaction due to last year, the news that she needed 10 stitches ought to squelch that talk. as the vet said, not enough time to assess any underlying issues-right call imo.
