“Vanned Off”: Horse required equine ambulance to get off the track; while not all end up dead, most do, as borne out by our subsequent reporting. “Bled”: pulmonary hemorrhage.
Reported on Paulick Report, Cody Dorman passed away yesterday on the way back to Kentucky. His namesake horse won the race Saturday. For those of you who do not know the story please check out the connection between a challenged little boy and the horse who loved him. The horse a most magnificent decent creature who feels human emotion more than most ever will.
Indeed! Horses are very sensitive & ours know when we`re sad or aggravated or worried by something. Our horses have taught us to be more sensitive towards other people. Wish people would return those feelings to them more often.
