It's not as if anyone will ever see this in any horse's future pps except for those who access the charts of Tide Dancer's races but I just thought "broke down" would have sufficed.

Sometimes 'broke down' doesn't mean the horse was actually put down.

True,I guess it was just more information than I needed to know.

I hear you and sometimes I feel the same way... ignorance is bliss.

I guess they do that so that a person isn't wondering. I know when I read 'broke down, vanned off', I'm wondering if the horse made it or not.

Anyway, it's definitely sad when that happens.

it is sad
BUT....
i dont see any problem with it, like someone pointed out earlier... broke down most of the time means broke down, not put down
