In the 5th at Keeneland this afternoon, 3-year-old Triggerman “went wrong,” says the chartwriter. “Went wrong,” as regular readers of this site can attest, is Kentucky Racing’s favorite euphemism for dead, and dead is what Triggerman is – suffering what Keeneland calls a “catastrophic injury to [his] left front limb.” Triggerman is the third kill in the first week of the Keeneland meet. But, the apologists declare, at least they’re being “transparent” about it. Vile.
