John's Call Stakes
 

Bearpath, the favorite in the John's Call stakes today at Saratoga stumbled and tossed the jock, and the horse appeared to be injured afterwards. He was vanned off.

It was sickening to watch that horse limp around the track. It happened in the first turn, and Bearpath continued to run well past the club house turn. We were seated just inside the 1/8 pole and it was very evident that he was injured. I've been looking for info about him, but it just didn't look good. Poor horse running away in fear and most probably pain.

1st Sanagas
2nd Center Divider
3rd Bold Hawk

Stress fracture to his shoulder according to the Twitter world and folks at the Spaaaaa.

That hurt me too.

It's also sickening when the negative outcome of someone's wager is cause for more concern than the negative outcome of a horse. Hope I never get to the day when I can be that blase about the sport.

Tweet from Steve Byk at about 8:15 am -- Wilkes: Bearpath makes it thru night; shoulder will be scanned to evaluate extent of damage, course of action; hard decision likely ahead..

Update this evening from FB - Bearpath has a broken humerus after some scans were taken this morning. But he's comfortable it appears, they're going to take it day by day and keep an eye on the other foot for laminitis.
