In addition to the incidents already reported for Keeneland last week, there were these as relayed by the stewards. Again, to be clear, the charts said nothing about these.
Oct 11:
“The claim [sale] of Shy Shy was voided when horse was placed on Vet’s List.”
Oct 12:
“Chiquita Reina was injured in the paddock and was scratched.”
“Rungius suffered a post-race heatstroke and required the horse ambulance.”
Oct 13:
“Apollo Rising suffered a post-race heatstroke and required the horse ambulance.”
“Equal Protection returned lame and required the horse ambulance.”
“Foreseen was injured in the paddock and was scratched.”
“Enigmatic was injured in the starting gate and was scratched.”
“The claim of Emerald Express was voided when horse was placed on Vet’s List.”
This, too, is horseracing.
Horseracing is Animal Cruelty!
