Chart notes from U.S. Thoroughbred and Quarterhorse races last week.
(Note: Between the holidays and the weather, there was very limited racing last week.)
Omey Island “transported off track in ambulance” at Parx
Ministerial “transported off via ambulance” at Aqueduct
Anmer Hall “hit rail, DNF” at Santa Anita
Notes: Horses who are injured so badly they require an ambulance to get off the track more often than not end up dead, as borne out by our subsequent FOIA reporting. “Bled”: indicates pulmonary hemorrhage. “DNF”: unable to finish the race. (For any new confirmed kills during the week, please see our running annual list.)
RIP, Omey Island, Ministerial, and Anmer Hall.
