Kentucky Derby winner Barbaro is progressing so well he might not have the cast on his severely injured right hind leg changed for several weeks.
The media, as usual, creates confusion. The AP article said the cast wasn't changed, but your local media showed it being changed?
No, it looked like it opens up, like hinged or something - it's fiberglass. He opened it and looked - didn't take it off. Not sure how that works, but it was "open" and then back on and closed up.
