Default Infection forces J C's Pride to be put down..

Hot 2-year-old prospect J C's Pride euthanized after illness
By David Grening

OZONE PARK, N.Y. - J C’s Pride, the 2-year-old colt who set the track record for five furlongs at Saratoga this past summer, was euthanized earlier this week due to complications from an infection, trainer Robert Barbara said Friday. According to Barbara, J C’s Pride had developed a salivary gland infection a couple of weeks ago, which prompted him being sent to the Mid Atlantic Equine Medical Center in Ringoes, N.J. Barbara said the infection spread and “something got to his kidney.’’ The horse was euthanized at Mid Atlantic earlier this week.

I really am sad to hear about the death of J C's Pride. I was a huge fan of his since he debuted. R.I.P. and my condolences to his connections.
