Bet U Cant Find Me was killed at Finger Lakes this morning – officially (Gaming Commission), “sustained injury to right front leg while training and was vanned off…euthanasia due to poor prognosis.” The Commission adds that the “investigation continues”; I can assure that there is no such thing, for you see, Bet U Cant Find Me was a cheap – “For Sale” at $5,000 in her last race on August 26 – 9-year-old claimer who had been raced 64 times. Translation: She was basically worthless; Racing couldn’t care less that she’s gone.
