At Penn National the other night...

I haven't heard anything about the horses or jockeys.

Anyone know?

Zidane, who broke down and initiated the pileup, was reported elsewhere as sustaining injuries requiring euthansia, unfortunately ...

The horse was also claimed from this race ...

PA racing is really grisly currently ...

This was yet another sad chapter...

Greatest Passion, a 4 year-old gelding broke down on the far turn and was humanely destroyed.

The Big Truck rumors continue...

Can anyone confirm this or put an end to it?

Apparently there was / might have been an incident at Tampa Bay the other day...

I hate posting rumors but if anyone knows either way...

Sacred Light and Six Cents of Humor were both vanned off today (Golden Gate).

Any news?

I'm asking again for any news on Mr. Umphrey.

I know there's one forum where he's on the farewell list but i can't find any confirmation and so will continue hoping for the best.

Yeah I know Freddy.

Mr. Umphrey was at Philly. 7k.

That for a horse who had been in the Met Mile?

I know, I know... rabbit for Silver Wagon, for Diamond Stripes but still...

I know I'm probably a fan of too many (of the non-greats) but I always had a soft-spot for him and I just want to know either way. That's all.

They deserve one little final mention somewhere.

If I see their name(s), I'll mention them. If I was a fan I'll write as much or something I remember.

Does it matter? No.

It's just something I do... it's just something I do because it's all I can do and if other people don't see it or don't get it or think it's idiotic that's fine.

It's just me.

I hope this guy is alright and if not i hope he didn't have to suffer for too long.

If I never find out well I can still hope that either way his last moments will not be or were not completely terrible and frightening.

I guess I hope that for all of us.

Okay why don't I shut up now.

I made money on Bernardini the day Barbaro broke down..........I would have glady given it back if he would have never gotten hurt. There will never be a day that I won't care more about the horses than my bankroll. Keep doing what you are doing MMSC, there are many that care greatly about the welfare of the horses that get hurt, and I am one of them.

Keep right on truckin' MMSC. I appreciate it. Sometimes you're the first person to let me know something happened to a horse I was fond of.
