There is a special place in hell for these people I hope.
What a crock of B.S.
A statement from Linda McInvale posted on Runhappy's FB page.
"Hi everyone- We know you would all like a statement and thoughts about today. First of all this was not a decision made today, on a whim, or hastily. Gallery Racing has nothing but admiration and respect for Maria, and wishes her nothing but success in the future. RunHappy was not off or lame today, and although Maria and Laura Wohlers may have disagreed on that, RunHappy saw the vet and he confirmed nothing was wrong. Gallery Racing would never and will never make any decision for any horse unless it is in the very best interest of the animal; this is the main reason we do not run on any drugs. This was an internal decision made a while ago and Gallery Racing wanted to allow Maria to finish the campaign with RunHappy and get a Breeder's Cup win under her name and on record. Gallery Racing hopes she has an incredible career. We hope you will understand there are two sides to every story and we have our reasons for the decision. Gallery Racing will always have RunHappy's health and happiness as our primary concern. We see his future being very bright and God willing, it will be! Gallery Racing would like to thank all of the RunHappy fans for your incredible support!"
