Oh man I am just sad to add this one... he was like my special horse of the Nad al Sheba meet back in 2008. I know that sounds dumb but that's the way I think of and will remember him. Such a hard trying horse.

Rosberg.

Rest in peace. :(

Churchill Race 4

Obviously had some issues since last August. I guess $898k wasn't enough for them to retire him back then. What a shame.

Saw the race. Wasn't sure what happened. Too bad.:(

Laura, On DRF.com, they're saying Sabercat is back at the barn and ok????:confused:

What?! OMG! Well, that's great news! Sure looked like he broke down on the turn.

You must be a Twitter' :)

4 yr old Socialbug :(

According to the Daily Racing Form’s Marty McGee, Napravnik was riding Socialbug, a 4-year-old Bob Baffert trainee owned by Mike Rutherford. filly broke down at the sixteenth pole and unseated the rider. Socialbug, a half-sister to champion Midnight Lute, was euthanized due to injury.

Per McGee, from information received from Napravnik’s husband, Joe Sharp, x-rays were taken of her shoulder, but the nature of the injury is still unknown. According to Jennie Rees of The Louisville Courier-Journal, Napravnik was taken to University Hospital.

Sad for any horse, but I was particularly sad with this one. She was in my stable mail and had just gotten her first graded stakes placing. I was looking forward to seeing her develop. A nice filly with some really nice breeding, by Curlin out of the dam of Midnight Lute.

Sir Graham Wade, 5, today at Royal Ascot. This was his 21st start.

Rest in peace, beautiful boy.

edit - Have to, sadly, add in Case Statement who was put down following the Coventry Stakes. RIP
