It's a tough game. Sucks for the connections.

I really don't see the need for sarcasm. The horse is injured. that's nothing to be glib about.

Oh wev. It's not like she said, "HAHA STUPID HORSE ****ED HIS LEG UP! YUK YUK YUK."

A run-of-the-mill snide comment about a no-hope horse running into War Pass is no less warranted in this case than in any other just because the horse has a name that makes you feel warm inside.

Sarcasm?? On this site.. No..... I thought that was a requirement.

Like many, I am sorry to hear that this horse got hurt. I like hearing these stories. It was a nice, humanistic story and regardless of how far he went he might have been the pull at your heartstrings story this year. First, it's a story about a "cause" and people like that. Second, people like these kinds of stories. It's good for the sport and for the business.

For those who don't like, think it's BS, find fault, make others out to be wrong, etc. -- those people are better off marinating in their own negativity. Like I've always said, it says more about the author than it does about the subject.

it's ok to be sarcastic... just not about horses being hurt

I guess since the injury wasn't life threatening. I over-reacted

I'm over it

moving on
