Arnold said Kopitar, a 4-year-old gelding, shattered both right front sesamoids and suffered a condylar fracture.

“It’s a shame, because he’d been having such a good last few months,” said Arnold."

I have followed this one throughout his injury plagued 5 race career, bet on him yesterday.

Wow. Is it worse he got hurt or that they actually planned to run him back in the BC in 2 weeks?

I added him to the angels thread yesterday...

http://www.derbytrail.com/forums/sho...=33576&page=12

I figured someone would have as well.

Not that this matters but personally I only make threads for horses I'm very familiar with or who had some special meaning for me.

Being a newer fan, a lot of these names... while I understand how important they were... I leave it to someone who lived through the period and who has memories to pay tribute.

Anyway, poor guy.

Ramsgate, who was 2nd today at Aqueduct.

Hope he's okay.

(I've followed this one since he was 2 and he's one of the only horses left in my vs).

Would really appreciate any news. Thanks.

Rough day...

From Dave Grening, DRF:

Ramsgate diagnosed with an injured ankle; too much damage to be saved.

Great Emperor, slab fractures right knee; vanned off and then euthanized.

Rum Row got loose, ran to the gap, slid and fell suffering a fractured radius. Had to be euthanized.

RIP

Ramsgate did not make it. Its an awful, helpless feeling when you see a horse that we once had in so much distress and you can't do anything about it. He was such a cool little guy and all of us that work for Chad and Chad himself are all very upset about this.
