9/4-5 (DMR): Del Mar Derby (G2); Palomar (G2)

[Merlinsky]

Molly Jo Rosen is reporting on Twitter that Burns was euthanized after breaking down on the first turn of the Del Mar Derby. Fractured sesamoids and irreparable damage to the suspensory system. She said he probably stepped in a hole and his body went one way, his ankle another.
