3-year-old Amplify’s result in the 6th at Laurel yesterday afternoon, as relayed by the Equibase writer: “AMPLIFY…was under a hard ride leaving the far turn, sustained a catastrophic injury near the three sixteenths and was euthanized.”
“was under a hard ride” = was being whipped
“sustained a catastrophic injury” = snapped or shattered a leg
“was euthanized” = was killed
The most recent Stewards Minutes for Del Mar report two “deceased” for the period August 8-August 12 – identities withheld.
Everyobe who is reading these posts MUST write to elected officials,news stations and write editorials. More of the pyblic MUST be made aware of these murders
This should all go public..I think many racing fans do not know this. I did not when I was young. I now despise horse racing…..cruel and brutal “sport”.
How are identities withheld in a publicly exhibited contest? How do they get away with it?
Racing is a law onto itself – no oversight – no accountability.
