It's nice to say "sorry for your loss" and "condolences to the connections" but it does nothing to help the sport.

Next time I suggest we just do this when a horse goes down....

That seems to be the norm.
Huh? I’m sure I’ll regret even going down this path, but what are you talking about?

Forget it. I know we play for the same team and want the best for the sport. I have no quarrel with you.

I tend to get emotional on this topic and sometimes writing something in texts, emails and message boards gets misconstrued. I can still remember watching Ruffian as a kid and I was never the same.

A painful read (the actual report, not the BH article), but illuminating. I hope it will be discussed on ATR.
