It's heartbreaking.

If I've left anyone out, please feel free to add them.....

They ALL deserve to be remembered one last time.

Wow. Thanks for posting this, as I agree that we all need to remember each and every one of them. They died for our sport, and respect should be paid to each and every one of them...

Wow, I hadn't heard about Adreamisborn... that one really saddens me (just as much as LITF) I loved watching that horse run at Bay Meadows...

I found this page: http://flyingfilly.com/good-bye_2006.htm that lists pretty much all confirmed deaths this year... amazingly long and depressing list...

Let's all hope that the list for 2007 is much, much shorter...

All I've found about his passing is that he had broken blood vessel which led to severe internal bleeding... sad end for an amazing horse.

Let's hope 2007 is kinder. All should be remembered.

Read the link on Up an Octave... SAD, SAD, SAD

Personal favorites

PINE ISLAND, LOST IN THE FOG - Just love those horses that fight no matter what.

Bob Lewis - I still run the tape of the 97 Derby where he was shown pulling Silver to the finish line. That program was getting worn out.

Thank you for posting, as well.

At this point, I'll focus on the runners for "next year."

And hope the sport can do the best it can to protect all of it's athletes as we move forward.

It's a great sport.

There were many more deaths reported, but the site owner (for obvious reasons) won't post them without a link.

If you check out the rest of the site there are many positive stories, too.

Let's hope so.....

As someone else said there were many, many more. These were off the top of my head.

Rest in peace, all of you.

Mystery Island had to be euthanized after yesterday's race at Santa Anita. RIP, your last run was a good one.
