That Horse Is Probably Going To Die

[BeenHereBefore 1,517]

Saratoga track on FOX, 5 horse New York Thunder was on his way to win 5 in a row and did a flip over and tried to get back up and couldn't. Hard to watch and dang it the 19-1 2 I was tempted to bet on won. Que Weepaws post.

Sad.  It’s a wicked money envying sport.

 It’s amazing what they did decades ago when they had to put one down. The fairgrounds here is one of the oldest in the country along with one that became a cemetery a century ago. The infield of the track is where they would bury them. If you ever have the opportunity to go to Jazz Fest here, where you find your spot, there is a horses that are beneath you.
