... filling was discovered in an ankle...
The soft tissue injury was discovered the morning of the race. Dr. Foster Northrup watched as I Want Revenge jogged on the blacktop, and “he jogged fine,” the equine practitioner said at a press conference. But, “the inflammation was there.
“He X-rayed normal and the ultrasound was normal,” Dr. Northrup said. “There is no diagnosis at this time. More sophisticated tests will need to be done.”
Doesn’t sound too serious other than it occurred on Derby morning. Glad to hear he will probably be fine except for missing his chance at the BIGGIE. Probably he’ll be back for the Preakness in good order unlike some of the others who have had to drop out.
