I know it's just a typo, but I now have a mental image of Paynter sitting in a pottery class, putting the finishing touches on a project.

Glad the IV antibiotics seem to be working. Cause of intermittent fever can be frustratingly impossible to find sometimes - just treat!

This horse is an iron horse so far - unbelievable

Yeah my first thought was definitely "yuck!" I gotta wonder what the surgeon did to prevent getting bowled over by that smell. It's gotta be overpowering. A mask just wouldn't do it.

perhaps they become inured to that type of thing after a while? i can only imagine some of the things encountered in that line of work.

You hold your breath and breath through your mouth - but if you do it right, you aren't spilling smelly contents anywhere.

Glad he's doing so well - it is rather unbelievable! What a tough horse you are, Paynter.

They say there are going to try to bring Paynter back. Based on your knowledge of what he's gone through, what percentage chance would you give him of coming back at 100% and being the same racehorse as he was before?

With my renewed health and sense of vigor, I just started my first pottery class last night too!!

Maybe next week I'll make something for Paynter.

Various updates today, from 5 and 6 hours ago on A Zayat on Twitter

AWESOME

Congrats, Team Paynter, hope the good news continues for you all.

Paynter update: NEWS FLASH.. OMG OMG OMG thank you lord power of prayers.

Our warrior had Dr. Brian Fraley flown in from KY to visit him and wow yes he has beaten Laminitis.

And yes he can race again. Here are the details.... casts were removed today. He is showing uniform wall growth in all four feet.

Radiographs taken barefoot showed significant sole growth.

The hoof-lamellar zone has returned to a normal thickness indicating a decrease in swelling within the hoof.

Soft-ride boots with EVA foam pads were placed on the front feet and EVA foam pads were placed on the hind feet

He is sound at the walk Drs. Javsicas & Fraley are optimistic that his feet will not be performance limiting.

Meaning that he can race again at a top-notch level. Now that our warrior have beaten this sick disease of laminitis if he can only beat his colitis and get his G1 track back to normal.Healing will take some time but we are heading in the right direction

His fever is normal today. He is bright, happy and comfortable. I am on cloud nine, I will take it day by day.

We can’t claim victory yet but the people’s horse is fighting hard and he is so courageous. #Champion #keepfightingpaynter
