"Sheriffs investigators and the state fire marshal are investigating the fire at Velocity Farms, which is located off Highway 3 behind Benton High School.
A dog trained to sniff for accelerants went through the remains of the barn today but found no evidence of arson, investigators said. The barn and stalls were made of metal, investigators said. There was hay scattered all over it and the office and tack room were made of wood, firefighters said. The fire is believed to have started near the office, investigators said.
"We don't have any reason to believe this was arson, but we're going to wait and hear from the state fire marshal," sheriff's Lt. Ed Baswell said.
Because racehorses are involved, the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives was also involved in the case. "

Any idea why this is the case? Just curious. Is it because of special investigation abilities of the ATF and insurance claim suspicions?

I repeat, suspicions. Not blaming anyone, just curious about the ATF involvement...

I find your suspicions to be extremely offensive and insulting. The ATF is beyond reproach and employs several fine people.

I don't think anyone added Tropic Gem (Emerald, last month...)

I was asked to add The Toe, (I had never heard of him, and...) I can't find much about him.

He was a 7 year old gelding and was last or almost always last..... (10th of 10th, 11th of 11th, 12th of 13th, 13th of 14th in his last 4 races. I can't really find anything more).

Anyway he collapsed and died after that last race..... need to add him here.

If Magic, ed or Moodwalker know anything more hope they'll add it in.

Rest in peace.

Sorry.

I wrote out a really long post and decided not to include it.

Look at it this way... it's one last little celebration of their lives, one last little show of appreciation and respect.

It can be a little hard when someone asks me to include a particular horse here.... if I've never heard of them.

I never do mind. People have reasons why they don't want to post it (I guess). I'm just doing the best i can (that sounds fake and horrible. What i mean is they all deserve their names here, to be remembered that one last time. I try to remember to post those names when I come across them or when someone asks me to).

So even the ones who, in life, we didn't know? It's nice to stop for a second and know that they existed anyway and that they were part of this thing we all love.

Angels all.
