Formulaforsuccess Dead at Belmont

Formulaforsuccess, six, died during yesterday’s 3rd race at Belmont Park. The Gaming Commission simply says he “went over inside rail and died.” But Equibase offers a bit more detail: “[Formulaforsuccess] was eased at the quarter pole and in the midst of being brought to a stop a furlong out [collapsed] of an apparent cardiac arrest.”

The replay (Race Replays, Friday, Race 3) reveals little. All we get from the announcer, presumably right before the horse died, is “Formulaforsuccess is plummeting to the back of the pack.” This is Belmont’s 29th death of the year.

    • And racing tells the truth? I don’t think so !!! The facts speak for themselves : 29 deaths at one track over one season of racing. Cause of death for Formulaforsuccess ? Cardiac arrest has a cause and that is what needs to be determined but it has no chance of happening. Outrageous .
