He’s so fast (that) we’ve never even had to lay a stick on him. I think he was shocked. Julien rolled the stick over and hit him right-handed, and the horse was just shocked. That scared him over the rail.

Obviously I know nothing about training horses but umm you don't use a whip at all?
I mean he did tell Julien not to use it, right?
Hope the horse will be okay... |

“He’s very lame," McPeek said. "He’s wracked up pretty good behind. It’s career threatening and maybe, possibly, life-threatening. If he broke or chipped his pelvis, or has a compound fracture or stress fracture, they’ll have to put him down more than likely. But if it’s all muscle, we’ll be real lucky. We’ll have to see what happens.”
