The report ruled out any heart attack, stroke, cardiovascular problem.

:( Did'nt understand a lot of it, but just kept imagining them cutting her up. Poor girl. R.I.P Belle

Looks like she may have been a little sick. What a gallant effort

It is a great article. And Ellen Parker is a great pedigree expert. The article is spot on and we must continue to fight for what is right.

Commercial farms = factory farms

like puppy mills

While she may be a great pedigree expert and very knowledgeable the article strikes me as a little self serving. I wonder how many horses carry the cross that so worried her are sound and haven't broken down.

Did she say this before her other 4 races this year? Like AJ said a breakdown redboard.

pgardn 05-16-2008 07:34 PM

The autoposy made it very clear why
they put her down so quickly. Very
sickening, bone penetration...

I was certain she had a heart attack
as she was not moving when I first saw her.

HaloWishingwell 05-17-2008 08:38 AM

did she study all of the Derby runners pedigree? Any others have RAISE A NATIVE three times in their pedigree? Does she have numbers of the percentages of this cross that breakdown? I doubt it, her analysis is worth a good wipe to her.

A very informative article, dialogue was needed and you just hope someone will listen...it's a start and maybe something good can come out of Eight Belles death, it just isn't right what happened to her. We need all angles examined.
