I have confirmed that 3-year-old My Kinda Girl is dead after breaking down in Saturday’s 4th race at Charles Town. This was her fourth start, all under trainer Clovis Crane and owner DASL Stable. She was ridden by Arnaldo Bocachica.

How do you get this list ? This is such a tragedy that so few Americans realize is going on.
Have you seen this article Patrick? Apologies if you have. Hasten to add that Palmer’s statement “….cannot be prevented by interventions designed for musculoskeletal injury prevention.” is a joke! It appears he is unaware of stress fractures, sub-clinical issues, horses being overraced, whipped when horse cannot go any faster, horses being negligently managed, etc. etc. and the list goes on. He has the audacity to state
“As stewards of the racehorses, we have a duty to do all that we can to honor and protect these incredible athletes,” Palmer said. Deeds not words Mr Palmer! The time has come when the racing industry can no longer fool the public with its misleading and deceitful words.
