Bear’s Spirit Dead at Aqueduct

Trainer Gary Contessa recorded his second (Open Window) training death of the month when 5-year-old Bear’s Spirit broke down “breezing” at Aqueduct yesterday. The gelding had yet to run for Contessa, having just been claimed for $12,500 in March. In all, Contessa has lost 10 NY horses over the past four years. This is horseracing.

  1. Two dead race horses this month, and 10 in 4 years. Maybe Gary Contessa should consider a different career. Doesn’t matter, it’s raining dead race horses everyday. People with authority need to make a final decision and shut down the race horse industry for good. RIP Bear’s Spirit and God help the remaining poor souls that will be forced to their deaths, too.

  2. And the carnage continues…Put an end to the carnage – don’t bet on the horses. Bet on baseball instead!

  4. Hello — This is not related to any particular post but I wonder why Delaware Park (in Delaware) never has any posts here? Do they not allow it?
