Filly Eight Belles came in 2nd at yesterday's Kentucky Derby. It's my understanding that she broke both, front ankles and had to be put down. That's such a heartbreaker, I can't stand it. I watched Big Brown win and turned it off.
Barbaro and now Eight Belles...gosh is it worth it?

My sentiment exactly, jabber. While I understand the old tradition of the Kentucky derby, I don't get putting these beautiful animals through such risky torture. It was, once again, full of sadness for me.

I know! Why don't they just stick to racing cars? Cars can't feel anything and they don't have to shoot them!

I have to agree Jabber and LJ. What a sad thing to have happen to such a beautiful animal. We need to outlaw horse and dog racing all together.
