Growing impatient in the gate Spondulix kicked back with his right hind and it somehow got caught in between the doors. Standing on 3 legs, Dr. Verdarosa noticed what was happening and got the crew to get him free. He's scraped up pretty good but appears to be OK. We're lucky the 2 broke through because they may have sprung the latch with Spondulix still stuck which would have been a potential disaster. The cuts were cleaned and dressed and wrapped. Will post pic when I get home. More info in the morning of course. No one recalls a horse doing this. Bizarre luck. He had done everything perfectly leading up to the start. Thanks to everyone for coming out. Will get him back in for a debut as soon as he heals up.
