Default Examining Veterinarians

Dear Cannon Shell,

I totally agree with you. Many of these cases they just do not know or many times the people involved just do not what to know.

The type of race is important as well as you state, A Grade 1 Prep. These young horses are the most vunerable. They are competitors, willing to over extend themselves because of their class and determination. The horses that have never won a race even after many tries or older horses that know how to take care of themselves and will not try to the point that they would hurt themselvses.

We examining veterinarians get the line from the trainers "This is a stakes horse how can there be anything wrong with him/her. I would not run if I did not think the horse could win"

As I said, these are the most difficult of cases.
