Waiting for news on ...

[BaroqueAgain1]

In the 4th at Parx, FOUR horses fell when someone clipped heels, causing a multi-horse spill.
The Fandrool dude said that all four horses got up, but I'm still waiting for some official news.

Bad day at Parx. In the 1st race horses also clipped heels - Kadens Courage fell and was euthanized.

Take Charge Briana (Curlin) went down in a sprawl in the stretch of the 5th at Churchill downs, a 1 1/16-mile AOC on the turf. I couldn't tell if she broke down or lost her footing on the new Churchill grass. I know that turf course was a mess last year, and I have to wonder if it still is.

ETA: TCB was fatally injured and euthanized on the track. Jockey Saez appears to be OK.
Condolences to all the filly's condolences, including trainer D. Wayne Lukas.

The chart has them all as walking off, some kind of miracle that!

Actually, 5 horses fell - all walked off. Word from the barn is that all checked out OK - hope that is correct. Pretty scary when 8 horses leave the gate and you only see three cross the finish line. Rough day all over the place.

This is upsetting. RIP Take Charge Briana. Wasn't she vanned off from a race last year, too?

Really not a good day at Churchill. and worrisome since both races where horses pulled up were on the dirt.
I know the track had terrible issues with its turf course, and they spent a lot of time trying to fix it, but the dirt track? If there are problems with it, what can they do before the country's finest 3yos run on it this weekend?

Either the track or state vets missed something in pre-race exam. Or maybe a combination.

The thing is, 3 were breakdowns(2 on the dirt, 1 on the turf), 2 were sudden deaths. So its not not like they were all on the same surface or cause. Its bad no matter what though.
