A Kill at Aqueduct

In the 8th at Aqueduct Thursday, Towering Orbit, said the chartwriter, “got pulled up after the finish and was vanned off.” We now know she is dead – euthanized, according to the Gaming Commission, for an undisclosed injury. The news was not all bad, however: The 4-year-old Towering “earned” $480 for her people (including $31-million-earning trainer Saffie Joseph) on her way out the door.

This is horseracing.
