"Baffert headed to the winner’s circle on the same day that his colt Havnameltdown went down with a fatal left leg injury in an undercard race. Baffert said he and his team were in shock.

It was another dark moment for a sport already reeling from the deaths of seven horses at Churchill Downs in a 10-day span leading up to the Kentucky Derby."

Another sad day for horse racing.........

Didn't realize this thread was from 2022.

My comment was directed to today's Preakness where the owner of the winner lost a colt to injury in an earlier race.........
