 * * * I've been trying to think of what to say about Mr. Umphrey who I was such a fan of and who has been in the waiting for news on thread. Not being a good enough writer to do him justice, I'll simply say that the very difficult decision was made by those close to him, after injuries he had suffered in a race at Philly, to let him sleep forever and be free of pain. It seems like, from things I've read, he was always a barn favorite. I appreciate the people at Philly for passing on my email and am so grateful to his trainer for writing to me. I can't imagine being the one to make such a decision. I'm only a fan but as a fan I'm thankful that someone had that kind of strength, that kind of compassion, and let him go. Goodbye, Mr. Umphrey.You were so much fun to follow and root for... thank you for making life just a little bit happier. Rest in peace.

Law and Order, a four year old gelding, at Plumpton today.
He'd run 5 times on the flat, 2 on the all weather and 4 in hurdle races but he never hit the board. He unseated his rider three starts ago. Two starts ago he fell, he was pulled up last time out and he sadly died this time. RIP

Why would they have kept running him? Do you have an article on him? What kind of track is Plumpton? Is it like a Philly Park?
