    I really hope they don't have to destroy.

    I'm with Moddy. Once he broke out of the gate, I called my gambling brother and said 'I hope you didn't have him high because he's done.'

    5 minutes later, I just hope he's not.

    How am I suppose to fit Sweetnorthernsaint in a headline? Why couldn't Like Now win?

    Doc just said he doesn't think it's a fatal injury, though it looks career ending.

    I knew something would happen when he broke out of the gate before the start.  :'(

    And does anyone really care about the winner now that Barbaro got hurt? The lady interviewing the winner sure as hell didn't care about Barbaro.

    Glad I missed it. This is why I have a tough time watching horse racing: You very rarely have to worry about a ballplayer being taken out back and shot if he suffers a serious injury.

    A lady I work with thinks they should raise the age one year for horses to race due to the bone structure. What do you guys think of this?
