At least they were given a chance of life. They were fast enough to out race the flames. 400 ran for their lives, maybe 12 were lost, maybe more, but the ones who made it are the real winners. Better than dying in there stalls unable to escape.
Amen to that. Did you see the pictures from another fire of around 30 horses dead in their stalls? What a horrifying death for those poor horses. I don’t know the circumstances as to why they weren’t freed.
