Good news!

This horse's level head has gotten him through so far, now his health and constitution has to do the rest. And hopefully he will adapt to hobbling on the fused fetlock joint without too much stress . . . but that's far in the future right now.

Interesting that the racetrack officials think they see contact between Barbaro and Brother Derek. It's certainly as good an explanation as any - maybe they can computer enhance the film and get a better look.

It did happen......... the legs connected/bumped. I guess that happens.

I'm a little odd I suppose, but I'd just like to see these horses and live with these beautiful creatures................. no racing........ especially when they are so relatively young (three years old).

But ....... I'm just a little nuts.
